ALLEGHENY TELEDYNE LOGO
, 1999
To Our Stockholders:
These are exciting times at your company. In January we announced our plans
to effect a major transformation of Allegheny Teledyne that included the
spin-offs of two of our business segments into independent, publicly-traded
companies. This transformation is now being implemented. The businesses formerly
comprising our Aerospace and Electronics segment will now be a separate company
known as Teledyne Technologies Incorporated. The businesses formerly comprising
our Consumer segment will be a separate company known as Water Pik Technologies,
Inc. The common stock of these companies will be traded on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbols "TDY" and "PIK," respectively.
Concurrently with the spin-offs we will change our name to "Allegheny
Technologies Incorporated." We also intend to effect a one-for-two reverse split
of our common stock.
The spin-offs will allow Allegheny Technologies to focus exclusively on its
strategic growth objectives as one of the largest and most diversified specialty
metals companies in the world. ATI's strong base of companies provides an
excellent foundation for enhanced operating synergies and for adding
strategically complementary acquisitions. At the same time, the spin-offs
provide each new company with a sharper focus, more efficient access to capital
markets, and substantial growth opportunities in its respective areas of
expertise. By creating these new companies, we believe that we will unlock
greater value for their respective businesses and enhance their ability to
thrive in today's competitive marketplace.
Both of the spin-offs, which will be tax-free to U.S. stockholders and
which do not require any action on your part, will be completed on
, 1999. For every seven shares of ATI common stock that you own
as of the close of business on , 1999, you will receive one share
of Teledyne Technologies common stock. For every 20 shares of ATI common stock
that you own as of the close of business on that date, you will receive one
share of Water Pik Technologies common stock.
The enclosed Information Statement contains information about the spin-off
of Teledyne Technologies and about Teledyne Technologies' business, management
and financial performance. Information about the Water Pik Technologies spin-off
is being provided to you in a separate document. We encourage you to read all of
these materials carefully.
Very truly yours,
Richard P. Simmons
Chairman

SUMMARY
This summary highlights material information from this Information
Statement, but does not contain all the details concerning the spin-off,
including information that may be important to you. To better understand us and
the spin-off, you should carefully review this entire document. References to
"we," "us," "our," "Teledyne Technologies" or "the Company" mean Teledyne
Technologies Incorporated and our subsidiaries and divisions. References to
"ATI" mean Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated and its subsidiaries and divisions.
WHO WE ARE
Teledyne Technologies is a leading provider of sophisticated electronic and
communication products, systems engineering solutions and information technology
services, and aerospace engines and components. Our customers include aerospace
prime contractors, general aviation companies, government agencies and major
communications and other commercial companies. We serve high-value niche market
segments where performance, precision and reliability are critical and where we
are in several cases the leading supplier. Our businesses are interrelated by
their use of advanced engineering and specialized technology to provide
cost-effective and value-added solutions.
Our products include avionics systems that collect and communicate
information for airlines and business aircraft systems; broadband communications
subsystems for wireless and satellite systems; engineering and information
technology services for space, defense and industrial customers; and engines for
general aviation aircraft and for cruise missiles.
Total sales in 1998 were $780 million, compared to $757 million and $716
million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Our operating profits were $89 million,
$75 million and $75 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Approximately
60% of our total sales in 1998 were to commercial customers and the balance was
to the U.S. Government. Approximately 69% of these U.S. Government sales were
attributable to fixed price-type contracts and the balance to cost plus fee-type
contracts. International sales accounted for approximately 22% of total sales in
1998.
We have a total workforce of approximately 5,800, of whom approximately
1,400 individuals have engineering, physics, mathematics or computer science
degrees.
We believe that as several of the markets we serve experience
consolidation, customers have tended to become increasingly dependent on
technologically-sophisticated specialized suppliers, such as ourselves, to
provide a more comprehensive range of products and services. With our history of
product innovation, advanced research and development and highly sophisticated
engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we believe that we are well-
positioned to take advantage of opportunities to expand our business.
OUR HISTORY
The original Teledyne, Inc. was founded by Dr. Henry Singleton in 1960.
Over the following two decades, Teledyne acquired over 100 high technology and
specialty metals businesses. The original Teledyne ultimately focused on four
major business segments: aviation and electronics, specialty metals, industrial
and consumer. In 1996, Teledyne and Allegheny Ludlum Corporation combined to
form ATI, one of the largest and most diversified specialty metals producers in
the world. Subsequently, ATI integrated the Teledyne specialty
3
<PAGE> 8
metals businesses with those of Allegheny Ludlum. ATI also established new
management and a new management philosophy for our businesses, with an increased
emphasis on manufacturing discipline and on strengthening cost management
systems.
After a strategic review initiated in 1998, ATI concluded that certain of
its aerospace and electronics businesses, which will comprise our company, would
be able to grow faster and be a stronger competitor as a separate company. As a
separate company, Teledyne Technologies will be better able to focus on its own
strategic priorities and will have more efficient access to the capital markets
than it could as part of ATI. The operations included in Teledyne Technologies
are a group of high technology businesses that have critical mass and shared
core competencies, are strategically complementary and have the potential for
profitable growth.
Concurrently with the spin-off, ATI will change its name to "Allegheny
Technologies Incorporated."
OUR BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Teledyne Technologies' three business segments, their respective operating
companies and their contribution to our sales in 1998 are summarized in the
following table.
<TABLE>

and Communications Products; Precision Electronic Devices; and Electronic
Contract Manufacturing Services.
- Data Acquisition and Communications Products. With over 200 commercial
airline customers, we are one of the leading suppliers of systems that
collect and communicate essential performance data for the commercial
airline industry. We have provided these data acquisition systems for our
airline customers for over one-half of Boeing aircraft currently in
production. We were recently selected by Airbus Industrie's partner,
DaimlerChrysler Aerospace-Airbus, to provide our systems for certain of
its aircraft customers. Teledyne Technologies is also one of the largest
suppliers of air-to-ground telephony and facsimile and data transmission
products to the growing business and commuter aircraft market. We also
supply microwave power amplifiers used in satellite uplink transmitters
for corporate networking and mobile news gathering, and are developing
new products to support the growing market for high data rate broadband
communications, including Internet applications.

<PAGE> 9
- Precision Electronic Devices. We develop and manufacture specialized
electronic components for demanding applications in the defense,
commercial aerospace, medical, instrumentation and industrial markets,
where high performance and reliability are of paramount importance. Our
miniature electromechanical relays are used to switch high-speed digital
and microwave signals in wireless systems, communication satellites,
semiconductor test equipment and other applications where maintenance of
signal fidelity is essential. We provide custom microelectronic modules
for high reliability applications ranging from fiber optic systems on the
International Space Station to life-sustaining medical devices such as
cardiac pacemakers. We also manufacture instruments designed to provide
the precise data that are essential for control of critical processes in
the semiconductor and petrochemical industries.
- Electronic Contract Manufacturing Services. We operate turnkey
manufacturing facilities in Tennessee, Mexico and Scotland for
low-to-moderate volume, technically-sophisticated products, ranging from
individual printed circuit board assemblies to complete electronic
systems. We manufacture subsystems used in such diverse products as
weapons release systems and medical magnetic resonance imaging systems.
We also support our customers with our patented REGAL(R) rigid-flex
technology, which combines rigid and flexible printed circuits into one
assembly that eliminates board-to-board connectors, resulting in improved
reliability and packaging density.
Systems Engineering Solutions
Our Systems Engineering Solutions segment, through Teledyne Brown
Engineering, offers a wide range of engineering solutions and information
services to government defense, aerospace and commercial customers. Our
solutions and services are focused on five areas: Aerospace Solutions, Defense
Solutions, Information Services, Environmental Solutions, and Enterprise Control
and Energy Products.
- Aerospace Solutions. We provide a broad range of highly-sophisticated
engineering solutions and services to U.S. space programs, including
mission planning, payload integration, launch and flight operations and
astronaut crew training for the Space Shuttle. We also provide various
solutions and services for the International Space Station.
- Defense Solutions. For over 45 years, we have played a key role in the
development of the U.S. defense systems. For ballistic missile defense
programs, we have provided solutions in systems engineering, integration,
and testing; real-time distributed testing and training; radar and
optical systems design; command center development; and intelligence
studies and threat analysis. We provide battle simulation software as
part of our role for the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense Organization's
National Missile Defense program.
- Information Services. Our software products, most of which are certified
to ISO 9001, are used for highly diverse applications, such as
high-fidelity simulations, multi-media training, Internet website
development, distributed real-time testing, and command and control
centers.
- Environmental Solutions. We utilize our systems engineering solutions to
assist the U.S. Government in complying with terms of the Chemical
Weapons Convention
5
<PAGE> 10
Treaty. As the prime contractor for the U.S. Army's Non-Stockpile
Chemical Materiel Demilitarization program, we are designing,
fabricating, integrating and testing equipment to destroy chemical
munitions.
- Enterprise Control and Energy Products. Our systems engineering
capabilities are applied to energy problems through a variety of services
and products. Our OpenVector(TM) supervisory control and data acquisition
systems are used for managing over half of the gas transportation
pipelines in the United States. We also manufacture low-power,
continuously-operating electrical generators.
Aerospace Engines and Components
Our Aerospace Engines and Components segment, through Teledyne Continental
Motors and Teledyne Cast Parts, focuses on the design, development and
manufacture of piston engines, turbine engines, electronic engine controls,
batteries and metal castings.
- Piston Engines. We design, develop and manufacture piston engines and
ignition systems for major general aviation airframe manufacturers and
provide spare parts and engine rebuilding services. Teledyne Continental
Motors piston engines have been powering airplanes for over 70 years. We
have built approximately one-half of the general aviation piston engines
currently in use in the United States. Our Aerosance unit has developed
the first full authority digital electronic controls for piston engines
to automate many functions, such as fuel flow, ignition and power
management, that currently require manual control. These controls are
currently undergoing FAA certification testing.
- Turbine Engines. We design, develop and manufacture small turbine
engines for missiles, unmanned air vehicles and military trainer
aircraft. Since the late 1950s, we have delivered over 20,000 of these
engines to defense contractors. Our engines power the HARPOON cruise
missile and other missile systems. We have recently been selected as the
sole source provider of engines to power the two new U.S. cruise missile
systems, the Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) and the
Tactical Tomahawk Cruise Missile.
- Battery Products. Our Gill(R) line of lead acid batteries is recognized
as the premier dry-charged, starting and standby power source for general
aviation. We are focused on providing highly engineered battery products
in niche markets with favorable margins.
- Cast Parts. Teledyne Cast Parts offers a wide range of complex aluminum
and magnesium castings and nickel-based superalloy and stainless steel

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPIN-OFF
Why are we being spun-off by
ATI? After a strategic review initiated in 1998,
ATI concluded that certain of its aerospace
and electronics businesses, which will
comprise our company, would be able to grow
faster and more effectively as a separate
company. As a separate company, we will be
better able to focus on our own strategic
priorities and have more efficient access to
the capital markets than we could as part of
ATI. The operations included in Teledyne
Technologies are a group of high technology
businesses that have critical mass and
shared core competencies, are strategically
complementary and have the potential for
profitable growth.
7
<PAGE> 12
We believe that the spin-off will enable our
businesses to expand and grow more quickly
and efficiently in the following ways:
- Our high technology businesses have
different fundamentals, growth
characteristics and strategic priorities
than the specialty metals businesses
currently conducted by ATI. The separation
of our businesses from those of ATI will
enable us to focus on our own strategic
priorities, which should increase our
ability to capitalize on growth
opportunities for our businesses and
enhance our ability to respond more
quickly to changes in the technically-
sophisticated markets that we serve.
- The spin-off will enable us to have direct
access to the capital markets. We intend
to raise our own equity capital that we
will use: to expand our businesses by
accelerating new higher-margin product
introductions through increased research
and development investment; to expand upon
our extensive data acquisition and systems
engineering capabilities to provide
value-added information services to
broaden and deepen our market penetration;
to further develop our manufacturing
capabilities; and to pursue selected
acquisitions.
- The spin-off will enable us to recruit,
retain and motivate key employees by
providing them with stock-based
compensation incentives directly tied to
the success of our businesses.
What will I receive in the
spin-off? ATI will distribute one share of our common
stock for every seven shares of ATI common
stock you owned as of , 1999.
For example, if you own 100 shares of ATI
common stock, you will receive 14 whole
shares of our common stock and cash instead
of the fractional share. You will continue
to own your ATI stock. ATI intends to effect
a one-for-two reverse split of its common
stock immediately after the spin-off. The
ATI reverse split will have no effect on
Teledyne Technologies common stock or the
distribution ratio of the spin-off.
What do I have to do to
participate in
the spin-off? Nothing. No stockholder vote is required for
the spin-off.
How will ATI distribute Teledyne
Technologies common stock to
me? Prior to the spin-off, ATI will deliver all
outstanding shares of Teledyne Technologies
common stock to the distribution agent for
distribution. As promptly as practicable
after the spin-off, the distribution
8
<PAGE> 13
agent will mail certificates for whole
shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock
to ATI stockholders of record on ,
1999.
What is the record date? The record date is , 1999.
What if I hold my shares of ATI
stock
through my stockbroker, bank
or
other nominee? If you hold your shares of ATI stock through
your stockbroker, bank or other nominee, you
are probably not a stockholder of record and
your receipt of Teledyne Technologies common
stock depends on your arrangements with the
nominee that holds your shares of ATI stock
for you. We anticipate that stockbrokers,
banks and other nominees generally will
credit their customers' accounts with
Teledyne Technologies common stock on or
about , 1999, but you should
check with your stockbroker, bank or other
nominee. Following the spin-off you may
instruct your stockbroker, bank or other
nominee to transfer your shares of Teledyne
Technologies common stock into your own
name.
How will you treat fractional
shares? If you are otherwise entitled to receive a
fractional share of Teledyne Technologies
common stock you will receive cash instead
of the fractional share. Fractional shares
will be aggregated and sold by the
distribution agent, which will distribute to
you your portion of the cash proceeds
promptly after the spin-off. No interest
will be paid on any cash distributed instead
of fractional shares.
What is Teledyne Technologies'
dividend policy? We currently anticipate that no cash
dividends will be paid on Teledyne
Technologies common stock in the foreseeable
future in order to conserve cash for use in
our businesses, including possible future
acquisitions. Our current credit facility
will limit our ability to pay dividends. Our
board of directors will periodically re-
evaluate this dividend policy taking into
account our operating results, capital
needs, the terms of our credit facility and
other factors.
How does Teledyne Technologies
common stock differ from ATI
common stock? Teledyne Technologies common stock and ATI
common stock will be different securities
and will not trade or be valued alike.
Teledyne Technologies and ATI will be
separate companies with different
management, fundamentals, growth
characteristics and strategic priorities.
However, as with ATI common stock, Teledyne
Technologies common stock will have the
following characteristics:
- be fully paid and nonassessable;
- have one vote per share, with no right to
cumulate votes;
9
<PAGE> 14
- carry no preemptive rights; and
- be accompanied by Preferred Share Purchase
Rights.
How will Teledyne Technologies
common stock trade? We have applied to list Teledyne
Technologies common stock on the New York
Stock Exchange under the symbol "TDY" and
expect that regular trading will begin on
, 1999. A temporary form of
interim trading called "when-issued trading"
may occur for our common stock on or before
, 1999 and continue through
, 1999. If when-issued trading
occurs, the listing for Teledyne
Technologies common stock will be
accompanied by the letters "wi" on the New
York Stock Exchange. If when-issued trading
develops, you will be able to buy Teledyne
Technologies common stock in advance of the
, 1999 spin-off and you may
sell Teledyne Technologies common stock in
advance of such date on a when-issued basis.
How will ATI common stock trade? ATI common stock will continue to trade on a
"regular way" basis and may also trade on a
when-issued or ex-distribution basis,
reflecting an assumed value for ATI common
stock after giving effect to the spin-offs
of Teledyne Technologies and Water Pik
Technologies, Inc. When-issued or
ex-distribution trading in ATI common stock,
if available, could last from on or before
, 1999 through ,
1999.
Is the spin-off taxable for
United
States federal income tax
purposes? No. ATI has received a tax ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service stating that the
spin-off will be tax-free to ATI and to
ATI's stockholders. The continuing validity
of the IRS tax ruling is subject to various
factual representations and assumptions,
including the completion of a public
offering of our common stock within one year
of the spin-off. See "Risk Factors" and "The
Spin-Off -- Material Federal Income Tax
Consequences of the Spin-Off."
Will we be related to ATI in any
way after the spin-off? ATI will not own any of our common stock
after the spin-off.
Until the third annual meeting of our
stockholders held after the spin-off, at
least a majority of the members of our Board
of Directors will also be members of the
Board of Directors of ATI.
We will enter into the following agreements
with ATI prior to the spin-off:
10
<PAGE> 15
- A Separation and Distribution Agreement,
which provides for the various corporate
transactions required to separate our
businesses from other businesses of ATI
and governs various relationships and
circumstances that may arise between us
after the spin-off;
- An Employee Benefits Agreement, which
contains various agreements between ATI
and us concerning employees, pension and
employee benefit plans and other
compensation arrangements for current and
former employees of our businesses;
- A Tax Sharing and Indemnification
Agreement allocating certain federal,
state, local and foreign tax
responsibilities and liabilities between
ATI and us;
- An Interim Services Agreement under which
ATI will provide various services to us
for limited periods of time following the
spin-off; and
- A Trademark License Agreement under which
an affiliate of ATI will grant Teledyne
Technologies an exclusive license to use
the "Teledyne" name and related logos,
symbols and marks in connection with
Teledyne Technologies operations after the
spin-off, which license will include
Teledyne Technologies' option to purchase,
on the fifth anniversary of the spin-off,
all rights and interests in the Teledyne
name and related logos, symbols and marks.
See "Arrangements with ATI Relating to the
Spin-Off."
Are there any risks entailed in
owning
our stock? Yes. Stockholders should consider carefully
the matters discussed in the section of this
Information Statement called "Risk Factors."
How can I obtain information
about
the separate spin-off of ATI's
Consumer segment? The decision to spin-off Water Pik
Technologies, Inc., the company that owns
and operates the businesses formerly
comprising ATI's Consumer segment, was part
of the strategic planning process that lead
to the decision to spin-off Teledyne
Technologies. You will be provided with a
separate Information Statement describing
the spin-off of Water Pik Technologies.

WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY DONE IN PREPARATION FOR THE SPIN-OFF
Board Appointments As of the date of the spin-off, the Board of
Directors will consist of at least four
members. Our initial directors will be
Robert P. Bozzone, Paul S. Brentlinger,
Frank V. Cahouet, Thomas A. Corcoran, Diane
C. Creel, C. Fred Fetterolf and Charles J.
Queenan, Jr., all of whom are also directors
of ATI, as well as Robert Mehrabian, our
President and Chief Executive Officer. Until
the third annual meeting of our stockholders
held after the spin-off, at least a majority
of our directors will also be members of the
Board of Directors of ATI.
Senior Management Appointments Dr. Robert Mehrabian is our President and
Chief Executive Officer. He has been the
President and Chief Executive Officer of
ATI's Aerospace and Electronics segment
since July 1999. Dr. Mehrabian has served
ATI in various senior executive capacities
since July 1997, and prior to that, he
served as President of Carnegie Mellon
University.
Stefan C. Riesenfeld is our Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer. He
joined ATI in August 1999 as Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of
ATI's Aerospace and Electronics segment in
anticipation of the spin-off. From 1996 to
May 1999 he was Chief Financial Officer of
ICL, PLC, a global information systems and
services company based in London, England.
Prior to that, from 1983 to 1996, he was
with Unisys Corporation where he served as
Vice President and Corporate Treasurer from
1989.
John T. Kuelbs is our Senior Vice President,
General Counsel and Secretary. He joined
ATI's Aerospace and Electronics segment in
October 1999. Mr. Kuelbs was Senior Vice
President -- Acquisition Policy for Raytheon
Company from November 1998 to September 1999
and Senior Vice President -- Legal of
Raytheon Systems Company from January 1998
to November 1998. Before Raytheon's
acquisition of Hughes Aircraft Company, Mr.
Kuelbs spent 17 years at Hughes Aircraft
Company where he served as Senior Vice
President, General Counsel and Secretary
from 1994 to 1998.
New Credit Facility ATI will establish a five-year, $200 million
revolving credit facility. Prior to the
spin-off, ATI will use $100 million of
borrowings under this credit facility to
repay certain of its debt obligations and we
will assume the repayment obligations for
12
<PAGE> 17
those borrowings. Following that assumption,
we will have $100 million of borrowing
availability remaining under the credit
facility, subject to the terms of the
facility.

financial statements of Teledyne Technologies.
The historical selected combined financial data are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations or financial position that would have
occurred if Teledyne Technologies had been a separate, independent company
during the periods presented, nor are they indicative of our future performance.
Such historical data should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our combined
financial statements and related notes included in this Information Statement.
Per share data has not been presented because Teledyne Technologies was not a
publicly held company during the periods presented.

PRO FORMA SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
The pro forma selected consolidated financial data set forth below are
derived from the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information included
in this Information Statement. The pro forma data do not represent what our
financial position or results of operation would have been had we operated as a
separate, independent public company, nor do they give effect to any events
other than those discussed in the related notes. The pro forma data also do not
project our financial position or results of operations as of any future date or
for any future period.
The capital structure that existed when our businesses operated as a part
of ATI is not relevant because it does not reflect our expected future capital
structure as a separate, independent public company. The basic weighted average
shares outstanding were calculated by applying the distribution ratio (one share
of Teledyne Technologies common stock for every seven shares of ATI common
stock) to ATI's basic weighted average shares outstanding during each period.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider all the information we have included in this
Information Statement. In particular, you should carefully consider the risk
factors described below. In addition, please read "Cautionary Statement as to
Forward Looking Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" where we describe additional
uncertainties associated with our business and certain forward-looking
statements included in this Information Statement.
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY INTRODUCE NEW AND ENHANCED PRODUCTS IN A TIMELY
AND COST-EFFECTIVE MANNER.
Our operating results will depend in part on our ability to introduce new
and enhanced products on a timely basis. Successful product development and
introduction depends on numerous factors, including our ability to anticipate
customer and market requirements, changes in technology and industry standards,
our ability to differentiate our offerings from offerings of our competitors,
and market acceptance.
We may not be able to develop and introduce new or enhanced products in a
timely and cost-effective manner or to develop and introduce products that
satisfy customer requirements. Our new products also may not achieve market
acceptance or correctly anticipate new industry standards and technological
changes.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE COULD CAUSE CERTAIN OF OUR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES TO BECOME
OBSOLETE OR NON-COMPETITIVE.
The markets for a number of our products and services are generally
characterized by rapid technological development, evolving industry standards,
changes in customer requirements and new product introductions and enhancements.
A faster than anticipated change in one or more of the technologies related to
our products or services or in market demand for products based on a particular
technology could result in faster than anticipated obsolescence of certain of
our products or services and could have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operation and financial condition. Currently accepted
industry standards are also subject to change, which may contribute to the
obsolescence of our products or services.
OUR DEPENDENCE ON REVENUE FROM GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS SUBJECTS US TO THE RISK THAT
WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN BIDDING FOR FUTURE CONTRACTS AND THAT GOVERNMENT
FUNDING FOR THESE CONTRACTS MAY BE DELAYED OR CONTINUE TO DECREASE.
We perform work on a number of contracts with the Department of Defense and
other agencies and departments of the U.S. Government. Sales under contracts
with the U.S. Government as a whole, including sales under contracts with the
Department of Defense, as prime or subcontractor, represented approximately 40%
of our total revenue for 1998. Performance under government contracts has
certain inherent risks that could have a material effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
Government contracts are conditioned upon the continuing availability of
Congressional appropriations. Congress typically appropriates funds for a given
program on a fiscal-year basis even though contract performance may take more
than one year. As a result, at the beginning of a major program, a contract is
typically only partially funded, and additional monies are normally committed to
the contract by the procuring agency only as appropriations are made by Congress
for future fiscal years.
The overall U.S. military budget declined in real dollars from the
mid-1980's through the early 1990's. Although U.S. military budgets have
stabilized in recent years, future levels of defense spending cannot be
predicted. Delays or further declines in U.S. military expenditures could
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition,
depending upon the programs affected, the timing and size of the changes and our
ability to offset the impact with new business or cost reductions.
Most of our U.S. Government contracts are subject to termination by the
U.S. Government
16
<PAGE> 21
either at its convenience or upon the default of the contractor.
Termination-for-convenience provisions provide only for the recovery of costs
incurred or committed, settlement expenses, and profit on work completed prior
to termination. Termination-for-default imposes liability on the contractor for
excess costs incurred by the U.S. Government in procuring undelivered items from
another source.
We obtain many U.S. Government prime and subcontracts through the process
of competitive bidding. We may not be successful in having our bids accepted. In
addition, contracts may not be profitable.
A number of our U.S. Government prime and subcontracts are fixed price-type
contracts (69% in 1998). Under these types of contracts, we bear the inherent
risk that actual performance cost may exceed the fixed contract price. This is
particularly true where the contract was awarded and the price finalized in
advance of final completion of design. We believe that the U.S. Government is
increasingly requesting proposals for fixed price-type contracts.
We, like other government contractors, are subject to various audits,
reviews and investigations (including private party "whistleblower" lawsuits)
relating to our compliance with federal and state laws. In addition, we have a
compliance program designed to surface issues that may lead to voluntary
disclosures to the U.S. Government. Generally, claims arising out of these U.S.
Government inquiries and voluntary disclosures can be resolved without resorting
to litigation. However, should the business unit or division involved be charged
with wrongdoing, or should the U.S. Government determine that the unit or
division is not a "presently responsible contractor," that unit or division, and
conceivably our company as a whole, could be temporarily suspended or, in the
event of a conviction, could be debarred for up to three years from receiving
new government contracts or government-approved subcontracts. In addition, we
could expend substantial amounts in defending against such charges and in
damages, fines and penalties if such charges are proven or result in negotiated
settlements.
WE MAY NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO FUND PLANNED OR NECESSARY RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT, CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND POSSIBLE ACQUISITIONS.
In order to remain competitive, we must make substantial investments in
research and development to develop new and enhanced products and continuously
upgrade our process technology and manufacturing capabilities.
Although we believe that anticipated cash flows from operations and
available borrowings under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to satisfy our
working capital and normal operating requirements, we cannot fund our planned
research and development, capital investment programs and possible acquisitions
without additional financing. Our ability to raise additional capital will
depend on a variety of factors, some of which will not be within our control,
including investor perceptions of us, our businesses and the industries in which
we operate, and general economic and market conditions. We may be unable to
successfully raise needed capital and the amount of net proceeds that will be
available to us may not be sufficient to meet our needs. Failure to successfully
raise needed capital on a timely or cost-effective basis could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
IF WE FAIL TO UNDERTAKE A PUBLIC OFFERING OF OUR COMMON STOCK WITHIN ONE YEAR
FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF, WE WILL BE IN BREACH OF OUR AGREEMENTS WITH ATI.
ATI has received a tax ruling from the IRS stating in principle that the
spin-off will be tax-free to ATI and to ATI's stockholders. One of the
assumptions underlying the tax ruling is that we will undertake a public
offering of our common stock within one year following the spin-off and use the
anticipated gross proceeds of approximately $125 million (less associated costs)
for research and development and related capital projects, for the further
development of our manufacturing capabilities and for acquisitions and/or joint
ventures. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement and the Tax
Sharing and Indemnification Agreement, we have also agreed with ATI to undertake
such a public
17
<PAGE> 22
offering. Our failure to do so would be a breach of those agreements and subject
us to substantial liabilities.
WE SELL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO CUSTOMERS IN INDUSTRIES WHICH ARE CYCLICAL AND
SENSITIVE TO CHANGES IN GENERAL ECONOMIC ACTIVITY.
We derive significant revenues from the commercial aerospace industry.
Domestic and international commercial aerospace markets are cyclical in nature.
Historic demand for new commercial aircraft has been related to the stability
and health of domestic and international economies. Delays or changes in
aircraft and component orders could impact the future demand for our products
and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
In addition, we sell products and services to customers in industries that
are sensitive to the level of general economic activity and in mature industries
that are sensitive to capacity. Adverse economic conditions affecting these
industries may reduce demand for our products and services, which may reduce our
profits, or our production levels, or both.
PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS OR RECALLS COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR
REPUTATION, BUSINESS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
As a manufacturer and distributor of various products, our results of
operations are susceptible to adverse publicity regarding the quality or safety
of our products. In part, product liability claims challenging the safety of our
products may result in a decline in sales for a particular product which could
adversely affect our results of operations. This could be true even if the
claims themselves are proven to not be true or settled for immaterial amounts.
While we will have general liability and other insurance policies
concerning product liabilities, we will have self-insured retentions or
deductibles under such policies with respect to a portion of these liabilities.
For example, our annual self-insured retention for general aviation aircraft
liabilities incurred in connection with products manufactured by Teledyne
Continental Motors is $10 million.
Product recalls could also have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition. For example, in the second
quarter of 1999, Teledyne Continental Motors engaged in a product recall of
piston engines produced in 1998, which had an adverse effect on our recent
financial performance. Product recalls have the potential for tarnishing a
company's reputation and could have a material adverse effect on the sales of
our products.
We cannot assure you that we will not have additional product liability
claims or that we will not recall any additional products.
WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL SALES.
During 1998, international sales accounted for approximately 22% of our
total revenues. We anticipate that future international sales will continue to
account for a significant percentage of our revenues. Risks associated with
these sales include:
- - political and economic instability;
- - export controls;
- - changes in legal and regulatory requirements;
- - U.S. and foreign government policy changes affecting the markets for our
products;
- - changes in tax laws and tariffs;
- - the impact of the transition to a common European currency;
- - convertibility and transferability of international currencies; and
- - exchange rate fluctuations (which may affect sales to international customers
and the value of and profits earned on international sales when converted into
dollars).
Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of opera-
18
<PAGE> 23
tions and financial condition. Recent weak conditions in Asian economies have
affected our results of operations adversely. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
OUR INABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN KEY PERSONNEL COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
EFFECT ON OUR FUTURE SUCCESS.
Our future success depends to a significant extent upon the continued
service of our executive officers and other key management and technical
personnel and on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate
qualified personnel. The loss of the services of one or more of our key
employees or our failure to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. In particular, the loss of the services of Dr. Robert
Mehrabian, our President and Chief Executive Officer, could materially and
adversely affect us.
ACQUISITIONS INVOLVE INHERENT RISKS THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATING
RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
Our growth strategy includes possible acquisitions. Acquisitions involve
various inherent risks, such as:
- - our ability to assess accurately the value, strengths, weaknesses, contingent
and other liabilities and potential profitability of acquisition candidates;
- - the potential loss of key personnel of an acquired business;
- - our ability to integrate acquired businesses and to achieve identified
financial and operating synergies anticipated to result from an acquisition;
and
- - unanticipated changes in business and economic conditions affecting an
acquired business.
PROVISIONS OF OUR GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, APPLICABLE LAW AND THE TAX SHARING AND
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT COULD MAKE AN ACQUISITION OF TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES
MORE DIFFICULT.
Our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and Rights Agreement, and the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") contain several
provisions that could make the acquisition of control of Teledyne Technologies
in a transaction not approved by our board of directors more difficult. See
"Description of Our Capital Stock -- Rights Plan," "-- Certain Provisions of Our
Governing Documents," and "-- Anti-takeover Legislation." Certain tax aspects of
the spin-off could also discourage an acquisition of control of Teledyne
Technologies for some period of time. For example, the acquisition of Teledyne
Technologies by a third party during the two-year period following the spin-off
could result in the spin-off not qualifying as a tax-free distribution within
the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code and trigger
indemnification obligations of Teledyne Technologies under the Tax Sharing and
Indemnification Agreement. See "Arrangements with ATI Relating to the
Spin-Off -- Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement."
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MANAGE THE YEAR 2000 TRANSITION, OUR BUSINESS, RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
We are in the final stages of implementing plans to address issues related
to the impact of the Year 2000 on our products, business systems,
infrastructure, manufacturing systems and suppliers. The estimated costs
associated with these efforts continue to be evaluated based on actual
experience.
While we believe, based on available information, that we will be able to
manage the Year 2000 transition without any material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition, there can be no
assurance that this will be the case. In addition, we may be adversely affected
by the failure of suppliers, customers and federal, state, local and
international governments to address Year 2000 issues affecting their systems.
19
<PAGE> 24
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure."
COMPLIANCE WITH INCREASING ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND THE EFFECTS OF
POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE FINANCIAL
EFFECT ON US.
We, like other industry participants, are subject to various federal,
state, local and international environmental laws and regulations. We may be
subject to increasingly stringent environmental standards in the future. Future
developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating to environmental
matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations or financial condition.
Some of our businesses work with highly dangerous substances which require
heightened standards of care. For example, as the prime contractor for the U.S.
Army's Non-Stockpile Chemical Materiel Demilitarization program, we are
responsible for the destruction of small caches of chemical munitions and
materiel located in over 30 states. The destruction of chemical weapons is an
inherently dangerous activity. Although we have not experienced any accidents or
other adverse consequences as a result of our participation in this program, we
cannot assure you that we will not experience any problems in the future.
INCREASING COMPETITION COULD REDUCE THE DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
Although we have certain advantages that we believe help us compete in our
markets, each of our markets is highly competitive. Many of our competitors
have, and potential competitors could have, greater name recognition, a larger
installed base of products, more extensive engineering, manufacturing, marketing
and distribution capabilities and greater financial, technological and personnel
resources than we do. New or existing competitors may also develop new
technologies which could adversely affect the demand for our products and
services. Industry consolidation trends, particularly among aerospace and
defense contractors, could adversely affect demand for our products and services
if prime contractors seek to control more aspects of vertically-integrated
projects.
HAVING NO OPERATING HISTORY AS AN INDEPENDENT COMPANY MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO
PREDICT OUR PROFITABILITY AS A STAND-ALONE COMPANY.
We do not have an operating history as an independent company. Our
businesses have historically relied on ATI for various financial, managerial and
administrative services and have been able to benefit from the earnings,
financial resources, assets and cash flows of ATI's other businesses. After the
spin-off, ATI will only be obligated to provide us with the assistance and
services set forth in the Interim Services Agreement. See "Arrangements with ATI
Relating to the Spin-Off."
Following the spin-off, we will incur costs and expenses associated with
the management of a public company that we expect will be greater than the
amount reflected in our historical financial statements. We will also incur
interest expense and be subject to the other requirements associated with our
credit facility. While we have been profitable as part of ATI, there can be no
assurance that, as a stand-alone company, our future profits will be comparable
to historical operating results before the spin-off.
We also will need to dedicate significant managerial and other resources at
the corporate level to establish the infrastructure and systems necessary for us
to operate as an independent public company. While we believe that we have
sufficient management resources, we cannot assure you that this will be the case
or that we will successfully implement our operating and growth initiatives.
Failure to implement these initiatives successfully could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
20
<PAGE> 25
SINCE THERE HAS BEEN NO PRIOR MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO
PREDICT THE PRICES AT WHICH OUR COMMON STOCK WILL TRADE IN THE OPEN MARKET.
There has been no prior trading market for our common stock, and we cannot
predict the prices at which trading in our common stock will occur after the
spin-off. The trading prices for our common stock could fluctuate significantly.
SUBSTANTIAL SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF OR THE PROSPECT OF
THE REQUIRED PUBLIC OFFERING COULD CAUSE A DECREASE IN THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR
COMMON STOCK.
Substantially all of the shares of our common stock distributed in the
spin-off will be eligible for immediate resale in the public market. In
transactions similar to the spin-off, it is not unusual for a significant
redistribution of shares to occur during the first few weeks or even months
following completion of the transaction because of the differing objectives and
strategies of investors, including mutual funds, who acquire shares of our
common stock in the transaction. In addition, the prospect of our being required
to undertake a public offering of our common stock within one year following the
spin-off may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market
following the spin-off, the perception that any redistribution has not been
completed, or the prospect of our having to undertake a public offering of our
common stock following the spin-off, could materially adversely affect the
market price of our common stock.
FAILURE OF REPRESENTATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE IRS TAX RULING COULD
CAUSE THE SPIN-OFF NOT TO BE TAX-FREE TO ATI OR TO ATI'S STOCKHOLDERS AND MAY
REQUIRE US TO INDEMNIFY ATI.
While the tax ruling relating to the qualification of the spin-off as a
tax-free distribution within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue
Code generally is binding on the IRS, the continuing validity of the tax ruling
is subject to certain factual representations and assumptions, including the
assumption that we will complete a required public offering of our common stock
within one year following the spin-off, and use the anticipated gross proceeds
of approximately $125 million (less associated costs) for research and
development and related capital projects, for the further development of our
manufacturing capabilities and for acquisitions and/or joint ventures. ATI and
Teledyne Technologies are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would
cause such representations and assumptions to become untrue.
If the spin-off were not to qualify as a tax-free distribution within the
meaning of Section 355 of the Code, ATI would recognize taxable gain generally
equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the Teledyne Technologies
common stock distributed to ATI's stockholders exceeded the tax basis in our
assets. In addition, the distribution of our common stock to each ATI
stockholder would generally be treated as taxable in an amount equal to the fair
market value of the Teledyne Technologies common stock such stockholder
receives.
If the spin-off qualified as a distribution under Section 355 of the Code
but failed to be tax-free to ATI because of certain post-spin-off circumstances
(such as an acquisition of Teledyne Technologies) ATI would recognize taxable
gain as described above, but the distribution of our common stock in the
spin-off would generally be tax-free to each ATI stockholder.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement provides that we will be
responsible for any taxes imposed on, or other amounts paid by, ATI, its agents
and representatives and its stockholders as a result of the failure of the
spin-off to qualify as a tax-free distribution within the meaning of Section 355
of the Code if the failure or disqualification is caused by certain
post-spin-off actions by or with respect to us (including our subsidiaries) or
our stockholders. For example, the acquisition of Teledyne Technologies by a
third party during the two-year period following the spin-off could cause such a
failure or disqualification. If any of the taxes or other
21
<PAGE> 26
amounts described above were to become payable by us, the payment could have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and
cash flow and could exceed our net worth by a substantial amount. See
"Arrangements with ATI Relating to the Spin-Off -- Tax Sharing and
Indemnification Agreement."
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT AS TO FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
We caution you that this document contains disclosures which are
forward-looking statements. All statements regarding ATI's or Teledyne
Technologies' expected future financial position, results of operations, cash
flows, dividends, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, projected costs
or cost savings, capital expenditures, competitive positions, continuation or
expansion of government programs, growth opportunities for existing products or
products under development, benefits from new technology, plans and objectives
of management for future operations and markets for stock are forward-looking
statements. In addition, forward-looking statements include statements in which
we use words such as "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," or similar
expressions. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such
forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we cannot assure
you that these expectations will prove to have been correct, and actual results
may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ from the expectations
reflected in the forward-looking statements in this document include those set
forth in "Risk Factors."
Neither Teledyne Technologies nor ATI has any intention of or obligation to
update the forward-looking statements, even if new information, future events or
other circumstances make them incorrect or misleading.
THE SPIN-OFF
REASONS FOR THE SPIN-OFF
After a strategic review initiated in 1998, ATI concluded that certain of
its aerospace and electronics businesses, which will comprise our company, would
be able to grow faster and more effectively as a separate, independent company.
As a separate, independent company, we will be better able to focus on our own
strategic priorities and have more efficient access to the capital markets than
we could as part of ATI. The operations included in Teledyne Technologies are a
group of high technology businesses that have critical mass and shared core
competencies, are strategically complementary and have the potential for
profitable growth.
This Information Statement relates only to distribution of the common stock
of Teledyne Technologies, whose businesses are those formerly comprising ATI's
Aerospace and Electronics segment. A separate Information Statement will be
provided to you regarding the spin-off of Water Pik Technologies, Inc., the
company that owns and operates the businesses formerly comprising ATI's Consumer
segment.
We believe that the spin-off will enable our businesses to expand and grow
more quickly and efficiently in the following ways:
- - Our high technology businesses have different fundamentals, growth
characteristics and strategic priorities than the specialty metals businesses
currently conducted by ATI. The separation of our businesses from those of ATI
will allow us to focus on our own strategic priorities, which should increase
our ability to capitalize on growth opportunities for our businesses and
enhance our ability to respond more quickly to changes in the technically-
sophisticated markets that we serve.
- - The spin-off will enable us to have direct access to the capital markets to
finance the expansion of our businesses and support our future growth. More
specifically, we intend to raise our own equity capital:
22
<PAGE> 27
- to accelerate new higher-margin product introductions through increased
research and development investment
- to expand upon our extensive data acquisition and systems engineering
capabilities to provide value-added information services to broaden and
deepen our market penetration
- to further develop our manufacturing capabilities
- to pursue selected acquisitions
- - The spin-off will enable us to recruit, retain and motivate key employees by
providing them with stock-based compensation incentives directly tied to the
success of our businesses.
MANNER OF EFFECTING THE SPIN-OFF
ATI will effect the spin-off by distributing all issued and outstanding
shares of our common stock to holders of record of ATI common stock as of the
close of business on , 1999. The spin-off will be made on the basis
of one share of our common stock for every seven shares of ATI common stock
held.
Prior to the spin-off, ATI will deliver all outstanding shares of Teledyne
Technologies common stock to the distribution agent for distribution. As
promptly as practicable after the spin-off, the distribution agent will mail
certificates for whole shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock to ATI
stockholders of record on , 1999.
If a stockholder is otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share of
Teledyne Technologies common stock, that stockholder will instead receive cash
for that fractional share. The distribution agent will, promptly after the date
of the spin-off, aggregate all fractional share interests in Teledyne
Technologies common stock with those of other similarly situated stockholders
and sell such interests in Teledyne Technologies common stock in open market
transactions at then-prevailing prices. The distribution agent will have sole
discretion regarding when, how, through which broker (which will not be
affiliated with ATI or Teledyne Technologies) and at what prices to make such
sales. The distribution agent will distribute the cash proceeds to stockholders
entitled to such proceeds pro rata based upon their fractional interests in
Teledyne Technologies common stock. No interest will be paid on any cash
distributed instead of fractional shares. The distribution agent is not
affiliated with ATI or Teledyne Technologies.
No owner of ATI common stock will be required to pay any cash or other
consideration for shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock received in the
spin-off or to surrender or exchange any shares of ATI common stock to receive
shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock. The actual total number of shares
of Teledyne Technologies common stock to be distributed will depend on the
number of shares of ATI common stock outstanding on , 1999.
Participants in the ATI Investor Services Program will be credited with the
number of shares (including fractional shares) of Teledyne Technologies common
stock distributed in the spin-off in respect of the ATI common stock held in
their accounts.
NO CONSIDERATION WILL BE PAID BY STOCKHOLDERS OF ATI FOR THE SHARES OF OUR
COMMON STOCK TO BE RECEIVED BY THEM IN THE SPIN-OFF. ATI STOCKHOLDERS WILL NOT
BE REQUIRED TO SURRENDER OR EXCHANGE SHARES OF ATI COMMON STOCK OR TAKE ANY
OTHER ACTION IN ORDER TO RECEIVE OUR COMMON STOCK.
RESULTS OF THE SPIN-OFF
After the spin-off, we will be a separate, independent public company. Our
management, fundamentals, growth characteristics and strategic priorities will
be different from those of ATI.
Concurrently with the spin-off, ATI will change its name to "Allegheny
Technologies Incorporated."
The number and identity of our stockholders immediately after the spin-off
will be the same as the number and identity of ATI's stockholders at the close
of business on , 1999. Immediately after the spin-off, we expect to
have
23
<PAGE> 28
approximately 9,200 holders of record of our common stock and approximately
27,008,553 shares of our common stock outstanding, based on the number of record
stockholders and issued and outstanding shares of ATI common stock as of the
close of business on September 30, 1999 and on the distribution ratio of one
share of our common stock for every seven shares of ATI common stock owned by
ATI stockholders at that time.
As with ATI common stock, the shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock
will:
- - be fully paid and nonassessable;
- - have one vote per share, with no right to cumulate votes;
- - carry no preemptive rights; and
- - be accompanied by Preferred Share Purchase Rights.
The Teledyne Technologies common stock and the ATI common stock, however, will
be different securities and will not trade or be valued alike. See "Description
of Our Capital Stock."
We have applied to have our common stock approved for listing on the New
York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol "TDY."
The spin-off will not, in and of itself, affect the number of outstanding
shares of ATI common stock or the rights associated with these shares. ATI
intends to effect a one-for-two reverse split of its common stock immediately
following the spin-off.
MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF
The following is a summary of the material United States Federal income tax
consequences of the spin-off. It is not intended to address the tax consequences
applicable to every stockholder. In particular, this summary does not cover
state, local, or international income and other tax consequences. Accordingly,
stockholders are strongly encouraged to consult their individual tax advisors
for information on the tax consequences applicable to their individual
situations.
ATI has received a tax ruling from the IRS that states that the spin-off
will qualify as a tax-free distribution under Section 355 of the Internal
Revenue Code. In accordance with this tax ruling:
- - No gain or loss will be recognized by ATI upon the distribution of Teledyne
Technologies common stock to ATI's stockholders.
- - No gain or loss will be recognized by ATI's stockholders as a result of your
receipt of our common stock in the spin-off except to the extent that you
receive cash instead of a fractional share.
- - If you receive cash instead of a fractional share of our common stock in the
spin-off, you will be treated as having received the fractional share in the
spin-off and then having sold the fractional share. Accordingly, you will
recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the cash you receive
and the amount of tax basis allocable (as described below) to the fractional
share. The gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if you would have had the
fractional share as a capital asset.
- - Your tax basis in your ATI common stock will be apportioned among the ATI
common stock and the common stock of Teledyne Technologies and common stock of
Water Pik Technologies, Inc. you receive in the spin-offs on the basis of the
relative fair market values of the shares at the time of the spin-offs.
Promptly following the spin-off, ATI will send a letter to the holders of ATI
common stock who receive our common stock in the spin-off that will explain
the allocation of tax basis among ATI common stock and the Teledyne
Technologies common stock and the Water Pik common stock you receive in the
spin-offs.
- - The holding period of Teledyne Technologies common stock that you receive in
the spin-off will be the same as the holding period of ATI common stock with
respect to which you received our common stock so long as you
24
<PAGE> 29
hold the ATI common stock as a capital asset on the date of the spin-off.
The tax ruling relating to the qualification of the spin-off as a tax-free
distribution within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code
generally is binding on the IRS. However, the continuing validity of the tax
ruling is subject to certain factual representations and assumptions, including
completion of a public offering of our common stock within one year of the
spin-off, and use of the anticipated gross proceeds of approximately $125
million (less associated costs) for research and development and related capital
projects, for the further development of our manufacturing capabilities and for
acquisitions and/or joint ventures, as well as the lack of a plan or intention
on the part of ATI or Teledyne Technologies to merge with any other corporation
or to sell assets otherwise than in the ordinary course of business, or (subject
to certain exceptions) to purchase shares of its outstanding stock.
If the spin-off were not to qualify as a tax-free distribution within the
meaning of Section 355 of the Code, ATI would recognize taxable gain generally
equal to the amount by which the fair market value of Teledyne Technologies
common stock distributed to ATI's stockholders exceeds the tax basis in our
assets. In addition, each ATI stockholder who receives our common stock in the
spin-off would generally be treated as having received a taxable distribution in
an amount equal to the fair market value of our common stock. If the spin-off
qualified under Section 355 of the Code but failed to be tax-free to ATI because
of certain post-spin-off circumstances, ATI would recognize taxable gain as
described above but the spin-off would generally be tax-free to each ATI
stockholder as described in the preceding paragraph. See "Risk Factors."
THE FOREGOING SUMMARIZES THE MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF UNDER CURRENT LAW. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR TAX
ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR CONSEQUENCES OF THE SPIN-OFF TO YOU, INCLUDING THE
APPLICATION OF STATE, LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL TAX LAWS, AND AS TO POSSIBLE
CHANGES IN TAX LAW THAT MAY AFFECT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES DESCRIBED ABOVE.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement provides that we are not to
take any action inconsistent with, nor fail to take any action required by, the
request for the tax ruling or the tax ruling unless ATI has given its prior
written consent or, in certain circumstances, a supplemental ruling that permits
such action is obtained. The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement also
provides that we will be responsible for any taxes imposed on, or amounts paid
by, ATI, its agents and representatives and its stockholders as a result of the
failure of the spin-off to qualify as a tax-free distribution within the meaning
of Section 355 of the Code if the failure or disqualification is attributable to
certain post-spin-off actions or failures to act by or with respect to us
(including our subsidiaries) or our stockholders, such as the acquisition of
Teledyne Technologies by a third party at a time and in a manner that would
cause such a failure or disqualification. See "Arrangements with ATI Relating to
the Spin-Off -- Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement."
LISTING AND TRADING OF OUR COMMON STOCK
Currently, there is no public market for our common stock. We have applied
to have our common stock approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange
under the trading symbol "TDY."
A temporary form of interim trading called "when-issued trading" may occur
for our common stock on or before , 1999 and continue through
, 1999. If when-issued trading occurs, the listing for Teledyne
Technologies common stock will be accompanied by the letters "wi" on the New
York Stock Exchange. If when-issued trading develops, you will be able to buy
Teledyne Technologies common stock in advance of the , 1999
spin-off and you may sell Teledyne Technologies common stock in advance of such
date on a when-issued basis.
ATI common stock will continue to trade on a "regular way" basis and may
also trade on a
25
<PAGE> 30
when-issued or ex-distribution basis, reflecting an assumed value for ATI common
stock after giving effect to the spin-offs of Teledyne Technologies and Water
Pik Technologies, Inc. When issued or ex-distribution trading in ATI common
stock, if available, could last from on or before , 1999 through
, 1999.
Beginning on the first New York Stock Exchange trading day after the date
of the spin-off, we expect that ATI common stock will trade "regular way" only,
entitling the buyer to receive only ATI common stock.
Until our common stock is fully distributed and an orderly market develops,
the prices at which trading in our common stock occurs may fluctuate
significantly and may be lower or higher than the price that would be expected
for a fully-distributed issue. The prices at which our common stock will trade
following the spin-off will be determined by the marketplace and may be
influenced by many factors, including:
- - the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock;
- - investor perceptions of us, our businesses and the industries in which we
operate;
- - our dividend policy;
- - our financial results; and
- - general economic and market conditions.
Substantially all of the shares of our common stock that are distributed in
the spin-off will be eligible for immediate resale. In transactions similar to
the spin-off, it is not unusual for a significant redistribution of shares to
occur during the first few weeks or even months following completion of the
transaction because of the differing objectives and strategies of investors who
acquire shares of our common stock in the transaction. We are not able to
predict whether substantial amounts of our common stock will be sold in the open
market following the spin-off or what effect these sales may have on prices at
which our common stock may trade. Sales of substantial amounts of our common
stock in the public market during this period, the perception that any
redistribution has not been completed or the prospect of our having to undertake
a public offering of our common stock following the spin-off could materially
adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Generally, the shares of our common stock that are distributed in the
spin-off will be freely transferable, except for securities received by persons
deemed to be our "affiliates" under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Securities Act"). Persons who may be deemed to be our affiliates after the
spin-off generally include individuals or entities that control, are controlled
by, or are in common control with us, including our directors. Persons who are
our affiliates will be permitted to sell shares of our common stock they receive
in the spin-off only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, such as in accordance with the requirements of Rule 144 under
the Securities Act.

and the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1999
present the combined results of operations and financial position of Teledyne
Technologies assuming that the transactions contemplated by the spin-off had
been completed as of the beginning of 1998 with respect to the pro forma
consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and
for the year ended December 31, 1998 and as of September 30, 1999 with respect
to the pro forma consolidated balance sheet. In the opinion of management, they
include all material adjustments necessary to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
NOTE 1.
The historical financial statements of Teledyne Technologies reflect
periods during which Teledyne Technologies did not operate as a separate,
independent company. Certain estimates, assumptions and allocations were made in
preparing such financial statements. Therefore, the historical financial
statements do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or financial
position that would have occurred had Teledyne Technologies been a separate,
independent company during the periods presented, nor are they indicative of
future performance.
Management believes that the estimates, assumptions and allocations made in
preparing the historical financial statements are reasonable.
NOTE 2.
The pro forma unaudited consolidated balance sheet was prepared assuming
the distribution occurred on September 30, 1999 and includes "Pro Forma
Adjustments" for transactions that occurred subsequent to September 30, 1999 as
follows:
(a) To record debt of $100,000,000 to be assumed by Teledyne
Technologies at the date of the spin-off.
(b) To record the transfer of net unrecognized actuarial gains on
pension obligation of $16,552,000 as of September 30, 1999 and the related
deferred tax effect of $6,419,000. The components of net unrecognized
actuarial gains on pension obligation are as follows:

</TABLE>
(c) To record the transfer of worker's compensation and general
liability insurance reserves of $5,253,000 and the related deferred taxes
of $2,037,000.
(d) To record the transfer of deferred compensation long-term assets
of $8,552,000 and long-term liabilities of $8,511,000.
(e) To record the planned liquidation of the remaining investment by
ATI and the issuance of 27,008,553 shares of Teledyne Technologies common
stock.
The effect on income from the balance sheet transfers of the pension plan,
insurance reserves and deferred compensation plan is reflected in the historical
financial statements. See Note 7 of Notes to Combined Financial Statements.
NOTE 3.
Pro forma net income was adjusted to include interest expense and
commitment fees on the ATI revolving debt we will assume in the amount of
$6,038,000 before tax, or $3,544,000 after tax, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and $8,050,000 before tax, or $4,725,000 after tax, for the
year ended December 31, 1998. Interest expense and commitment fees were
calculated assuming the $100,000,000 of assumed debt had been outstanding for
the entire period with an average
32
<PAGE> 37
interest rate of 7.7% based upon LIBOR plus 1.5% and commitment fees of 0.35% on
the unused portion of the facility.
A 0.125% increase in the assumed interest rate on the revolving debt would
increase interest expense by $94,000 ($55,000 after tax) for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 and by $125,000 ($73,000 after tax) for the year ended
December 31, 1998.
In addition, pro forma net income was adjusted to include additional
corporate expenses of $5,220,000 and $7,196,000 before tax for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively.
These expenses in combination with the corporate expenses allocated for
historical purposes ($6,030,000 and $7,804,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, respectively),
represent what management believes to be the reasonable corporate expenses of
Teledyne Technologies had it operated as a separate stand alone company during
the periods presented. We determined the additional corporate expenses for the
periods presented by estimating the number, seniority and compensation levels of
additional employees that would likely be required to fully carry out the
finance, legal, tax, human resources, investor and public relations and other
functions associated with being a stand alone public company. In addition, we
included estimates of various corporate and related administrative expenses that
can be expected to be incurred as a stand alone public company, such as board of
directors fees and expenses and independent accounting and legal fees and
expenses. In making these estimates, we also examined expenses historically
incurred by ATI for these personnel and expenses.
NOTE 4.
The average number of shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock used in
the computation of basic net income per share was 27,481,371 and 28,107,241 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998,
respectively, based on a distribution ratio of one share of Teledyne
Technologies common stock for every seven shares of ATI common stock. The
average number of shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock used in the
computation of diluted net income per share was 27,506,953 and 28,133,879 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998,
respectively. A distribution ratio of one share of Teledyne Technologies common
stock for every seven shares of ATI common stock was used to adjust the stock
options. The actual stock option adjustment will be based upon the relation of
the market price of ATI common stock prior to the spin-off to the market price
of Teledyne Technologies after the spin-off and therefore cannot be determined
at the present time.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
After a strategic review initiated in 1998, ATI concluded that certain of
its aerospace and electronics businesses, which comprise our Company, would be
able to grow faster and be a stronger competitor as a separate company. The
operations included in Teledyne Technologies are a group of high technology
businesses that have critical mass and shared core competencies, are
strategically complementary and have the potential for profitable growth.
Teledyne Technologies is a leading provider of sophisticated electronic and
communication products, systems engineering solutions and information technology
services, and aerospace engines and components. Our customers include aerospace
prime contractors, general aviation companies, government agencies and major
communications and other commercial companies. We serve high-value niche market
segments where performance, precision and reliability are critical and where we
are in several cases the leading supplier. Our businesses are interrelated by
their use of advanced engineering and specialized technology to provide
cost-effective and value-added solutions.
We operate in three business segments: Electronics and Communications;
Systems Engineering Solutions; and Aerospace Engines and Components. Our
products include avionics systems that collect and communicate information for
airlines and business aircraft systems; broadband communications subsystems for
wireless and satellite systems; engineering and information technology services
for space, defense and industrial customers; and engines for general aviation
aircraft and for cruise missiles. Our segments' respective contributions to
total sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and for 1998, 1997 and
1996 are summarized in the following table:

Our historical financial information is not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations, financial position or cash flows that would have occurred
if we had been a separate, independent company during the periods presented, nor
is it indicative of our future performance. The historical financial statements
do not reflect any changes that may occur in our capitalization or results of
operations as a result of, or after, the spin-off.
On an historical basis, the capital for our businesses was provided by
ATI's net investment in our businesses. In addition, no ATI debt was allocated
to us. Accordingly, our historical financial statements reflect no interest
income or interest expense. In connection with the spin-off, we will assume
repayment obligations for $100.0 million under a five-year revolving credit
facility initially established by ATI.
Our historical financial statements also do not fully reflect the corporate
costs and expenses we expect to incur in connection with our being an
independent public company. These financial statements reflect a $6.0 million
allocation of part of ATI corporate expenses for the nine months ended September
30, 1999, and allocations of $7.8 million, $7.6 million and $7.2 million for
1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. We do not believe that these recorded amounts
are indicative of what our actual corpo-
34
<PAGE> 39
rate expenses will be in the future. We expect that our actual corporate
expenses will be approximately $15.0 million annually, significantly greater
than those reflected in our historical financial statements, as we add
significant managerial and other resources to complete the infrastructure and
systems necessary for us to operate as an independent public company.
Assuming the spin-off had occurred on January 1, 1998 and that the
applicable interest rate under our credit facility was 7.7% and our commitment
fees were 0.35% on the unused portion of the facility throughout all periods, we
would have incurred interest expense of $6.0 million during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 and $8.1 million during 1998. If annual corporate
expenses were approximately $15 million incurred ratably over the year, our net
income would have been $29.2 million and $39.8 million during the 1999
nine-month period and 1998, respectively.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1998
Our sales were $603.0 million in the first nine months of 1999, compared to
$588.7 million in the same 1998 period. International sales represented
approximately 18% and 22% of our sales in the 1999 and 1998 nine-month periods,
respectively. Sales under contracts with the U.S. Government, which included
contracts with the Department of Defense, represented approximately 43% and 39%
of our total sales in the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
For the 1999 nine-month period, operating profit decreased 4% to $66.4
million from the 1998 period. Product recall costs at Teledyne Continental
Motors and a continuing slow economic recovery in some of our Asian markets
negatively impacted our performance.
Net income for the 1999 nine-month period was $35.8 million, a decrease of
5.2% from the corresponding period of 1998. Net income for the 1999 nine-month
period was positively impacted by net pension income of $2.8 million. For the
1998 nine-month period, net income was also positively impacted by net pension
income of $0.8 million, as well as income of $0.4 million recognized as a result
of favorable changes in our environmental obligations.
Assuming that the spin-off had been completed as of January 1, 1998 and
that the applicable interest rate under our credit facility was 7.7% and our
commitment fees were 0.35% on the unused portion of the facility throughout all
periods, our pro forma interest expense would have been approximately $6.0
million, our pro forma corporate expenses would have been approximately $11.3
million and our pro forma net income would have been approximately $29.2 million
in the 1999 nine-month period. See "Our Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated
Financial Information."
Sales and operating profit for our three segments for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998 are presented separately below and in Note 3 of the
Notes to Interim Combined Financial Statements.

Sales of our Electronics and Communications segment decreased 1% and
operating profit decreased 5% in the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to the 1998 nine-month period. Sales decreased in the 1999 nine-month
period primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in sales of electronic contract
manufacturing services and a $5.8 million decrease in sales of precision
electronic devices, which was partially offset by a $4.1 million increase in
sales of data acquisition and communication products. Operating profits for the
period were also adversely affected by the reduced sales and were further
affected by an additional $670,000 in costs related to a workforce reduction of
90 employees of Teledyne Electronic Technologies.

operating profit decreased 6% in the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to the 1998 nine-month period. For the 1999 nine-month period, sales
and operating profit included increases in defense energy systems and
environmental programs of $12.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively and lower
sales and operating profit in marine instrumentation products of $16.1 million
and $4.1 million, respectively. The decrease in sales and operating profit for
marine instrumentation products was attributable, in large part, to adverse
conditions in the oil industry. Sales in space programs increased by $3.8
million, while operating profit decreased by $474,000, due to a development
program for aircraft loaders.

1998 nine-month period. While sales improved in the 1999 nine-month period,
sales and operating profit at Teledyne Continental Motors were negatively
impacted by a recall of piston engines produced in 1998. Efforts associated with
the recall resulted in a $3.0 million charge and impacted sales during the
period. The decline in operating profit for this period was due in part to the
recall charge as well as to a decline in operating profit at Teledyne Cast
Parts. Operating results for Teledyne Continental Motors' turbine engines
increased during the period.

COMPARISON OF ANNUAL PERIOD RESULTS
Our sales were $780.4 million in 1998, compared to $756.6 million in 1997
and $716.4 million in 1996. International sales represented approximately 22%,
21% and 23% of our sales for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Sales under
contracts with the U.S. Government, which included contracts with the Department
of Defense, were approximately 40%, 40% and 44% of our total sales for 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively. Defense sales represented approximately 27%, 26%
and 27% of our total sales for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
In 1998, our operating profit was $89.2 million, compared to $74.9 million
in 1997 and $75.2 million in 1996.
Net income for 1998 was $48.7 million, compared to $41.6 million in 1997
and $40.7 million in 1996. In 1998, 1997 and 1996, last-in, first-out inventory
liquidations increased net income by $0.3 million, $2.2 million and $2.5
million, respectively. Net income for 1998 and 1996 was also positively impacted
by net pension income of $1.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively, and
favorable negotiations relating to environmental remediation costs that caused
recognition of income of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. In 1997,
net income was negatively impacted by net pension expense of $0.4 million and
expenses of $0.5 million related to changes in environmental obligations.
Assuming that the spin-off had been completed as of January 1, 1998 and
that the applicable interest rate under our credit facility was 7.7% and our
commitment fees were 0.35% on the unused portion of the facility throughout all
periods, our pro forma interest expense would have been approximately $8.1
million, our pro forma corporate expenses would have been approximately $15.0
million and our pro forma net income would have been approximately $39.8 million
in 1998. See "Our Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information."
Sales and operating profit for our three segments are presented separately
below and in Note 11 of Notes to Combined Financial Statements.

1998 Compared to 1997. Sales of our Electronics and Communications segment
increased 1% and operating profit increased 16% in 1998 compared to 1997. For
this period, improvements in sales and operating profit for the segment were due
primarily to increases in sales and operating profit of our data acquisition and
communications products, which increased by $9.8 million and $11.8 million,
respectively. These increases were attributable to expanded demand by commercial
airlines as well as business and consumer aircraft. Improved sales and operating
profit for electronic contract manufacturing services of $7.4 million and $2.6
million, respectively, reflected a continued strength in this market. These
improvements offset declines in sales and operating profit with respect to
precision electronic devices during the period, which decreased by $15.8 and
$9.4 million, respectively, due to continuing economic difficulties in Asia and
the continued weakness in the semiconductor equipment market. Results for the
1998 period included a loss of $1.4 million associated with the contract
development of a low-level windshear alert system, which was terminated in 1998.
1997 Compared to 1996. Sales of our Electronics and Communications segment
increased 8% and operating profit decreased 3% in 1997 compared to 1996. The
increase in sales
37
<PAGE> 42
during this period was primarily due to sales of our data acquisition and
communications products, precision electronic devices and electronic contract
manufacturing services, which increased by $9.4 million, $8.8 million and $8.3
million, respectively. Nonrecurring expenses, consisting primarily of research
and development-related expenses for electronic components for aircraft,
resulted in a decline in operating profit of $8.3 million for Teledyne Controls'
data acquisition and communication products. Results for 1997 included a loss of
$0.5 million associated with the contract development of a low-level windshear
alert system.

1998 Compared to 1997. Sales of our Systems Engineering Solutions segment
increased 6% and operating profit increased 57% in 1998 compared to 1997. The
improvement in sales and operating profit was principally due to the increased
sales and operating profit of $18.6 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of
our marine instrumentation products due to favorable conditions in the oil
industry, as well as our participation in defense programs, primarily ballistic
missile defense activities. Aerospace program sales decreased by $6.9 million in
1998 as a result of the winding down of our NASA payload integration contract,
but operating profit for aerospace programs increased by $800,000 due to
increased deliveries of international aerospace hardware.
1997 Compared to 1996. Sales of our Systems Engineering Solutions segment
decreased by 3% and operating profit decreased 34% in 1997 compared to 1996.
Operating results declined in 1997 due to lower shipments and funding levels on
defense and NASA contracts and costs totaling $2.4 million, consisting primarily
of charges related to asset impairments for discontinued businesses.

</TABLE>
1998 Compared to 1997. Sales of our Aerospace Engines and Components
segment increased 4% and operating profit increased 4% in 1998 compared to 1997.
These sales and operating profit increases were due principally to a $10.6
million increase in sales and a $4.7 million increase in operating profit for
new piston engine and turbine engine programs. These increases offset higher
costs associated with manufacturing plant reconfiguration and the development of
new products, including new digital electronic piston engine controls and a
NASA-sponsored new piston engine program, as well as sales decreases of $1.7
million and a decrease in operating profit of $3.6 million as a result of
production inefficiencies and delays in shipments experienced by our Teledyne
Cast Parts operations.
1997 Compared to 1996. Sales of our Aerospace Engines and Components
segment increased 10% and operating profit increased
38
<PAGE> 43
43% in 1997 compared to 1996. Improvements in sales and operating profit were
principally due to turbine engine programs, which had sales increases of $5.1
million and operating profit increases of $2.4 million during the period. These
increases were partially offset by the termination of a program in the third
quarter of 1997. A decline in sales of rebuilt engines and aftermarket new
engines resulted in a decrease of $4.6 million in sales for piston engines.
Sales and operating profit in this segment benefited, however, from increased
orders for airframe and engine cast parts, which resulted in increases of $18.8
million in sales and $5.1 million in operating profit. These increases were
attributable to the increased production of commercial aircraft and increased
tooling sales associated with the JASSM cruise missile program. Results for the
1997 and 1996 periods included a loss of $1.1 million and $1.9 million,
respectively, associated with a joint contract to develop a hybrid electric and
turbine powered vehicle that was terminated in 1997.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Our principal capital requirements are to fund working capital needs and
capital expenditures and to meet required debt payments. We anticipate that our
operating cash flow, together with available borrowings under our credit
facility described below, will be sufficient to meet our working capital
requirements, capital expenditure requirements and interest service requirements
on our debt obligations. Assuming that the transactions contemplated by the
spin-off had been consummated on September 30, 1999, our pro forma long-term
debt and stockholders' equity at September 30, 1999 would have been
approximately $100.0 million and $13.1 million, respectively. Our pro forma
interest expense would have been approximately $6.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 and approximately $8.1 million in 1998 had the spin-
off occurred as of the beginning of 1998. See "Our Unaudited Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Information."
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, cash generated from
operations amounted to $31.6 million and $45.2 million. This decrease resulted
from reduced income of $2.0 million, increased working capital of $16.0 million,
and decreased long-term liabilities of $4.4 million, and was partially offset by
an increase in depreciation and amortization and deferred taxes of $8.8 million.
Cash generated from operations totaled $67.1 million, $72.9 million and $44.9
million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Working capital increased to $93.1 million at September 30, 1999, compared
to $78.6 million at December 31, 1998. The current ratio was 1.9 at September
30, 1999, compared to 1.8 at December 31, 1998. The increase in working capital
was primarily due to the increase in accounts receivable and current deferred
tax asset balances partially offset by an increase in the accounts payable
balance.
In connection with the spin-off, we will assume repayment obligations for
$100.0 million under a five-year revolving credit facility initially established
by ATI. As a result of the spin-off, we will have $100.0 million of borrowing
availability remaining under the credit facility. Borrowings under the credit
facility will bear interest at variable rates at, or at margins above,
prevailing prime or Eurodollar rates (or, in certain circumstances, the
prevailing federal funds rate) and will depend on the ratio of our consolidated
total indebtedness to consolidated total capitalization from time to time. The
credit facility will require us to comply with various financial covenants and
restrictions, including covenants and restrictions relating to indebtedness,
liens, investments, dividend payments, consolidated net worth, interest coverage
and the relationship of our total consolidated indebtedness to our earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The credit agreement will
prohibit us from declaring dividends or making other specified payments in
amounts exceeding 25% of our cumulative net income after the effective date of
the credit agreement. The stock of our wholly owned subsidiary, Teledyne Brown
Engineering, Inc., will be pledged to the lenders under the credit agreement as
collateral to secure our obligations under the credit agreement until our
required public offering is completed.
39
<PAGE> 44
Capital expenditures for 1999 are expected to approximate $25.0 million, of
which $16.1 million were spent during the first nine months of 1999.
In connection with the spin-off, we will establish a new defined benefit
pension plan and assume the existing pension obligations for all of our
employees, both active and inactive, at our operations which perform government
contract work and for our active employees at our operations which do not
perform government contract work. ATI will transfer sufficient pension assets to
fund our new defined benefit pension plan such that at the time of the transfer,
pension assets will exceed pension obligations by approximately $50.0 million.
As a result, we anticipate that we will not have to make contributions to the
pension plan for the foreseeable future. Additionally, in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code regulations, we would be able to recover from the excess
pension assets amounts paid for retiree medical expenses.
We currently anticipate that no cash dividends will be paid on Teledyne
Technologies common stock in order to conserve cash for use in our business,
including possible future acquisitions. Our Board of Directors will periodically
re-evaluate this dividend policy taking into account operating results, capital
needs and other factors.
In connection with the spin-off, ATI received a tax ruling from the IRS
stating in principle that the spin-off will be tax-free to ATI and to ATI's
stockholders. The continuing validity of the IRS tax ruling is subject to
certain factual representations and assumptions, including our completion of the
required public offering of our common stock within one year following the
spin-off and use of the anticipated gross proceeds of approximately $125 million
(less associated costs) for research and development and related capital
projects, for the further development of our manufacturing capabilities and for
acquisitions and/or joint ventures. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution
Agreement, we have also agreed with ATI to undertake such a public offering.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement between ATI and Teledyne
Technologies provides that we will indemnify ATI and its agents or
representatives for taxes imposed on, and other amounts paid by, them or ATI's
stockholders if we take actions or fail to take actions (such as completing the
public offering) that result in the spin-off not qualifying as a tax-free
distribution. If any of the taxes or other amounts described above were to
become payable by us, the payment could have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition, results of operations and cash flow and could exceed our
net worth by a substantial amount.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" was issued in June 1998. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. In June 1999, FASB Statement No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities: Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133 was issued. This statement delays the effective date of
Statement No. 133 to all fiscal quarters beginning after June 15, 2000. We are
presently evaluating the effect of adopting these statements.
OTHER MATTERS
INCOME TAXES
Our effective income tax rate was 41.3%, 39.4% and 41.8% in 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. We have determined, based on our history of operating
earnings, expectations of future operating earnings and potential tax planning
strategies, that it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets
at December 31, 1998 will be realized.
COSTS AND PRICING
Inflationary trends in recent years have been moderate. We primarily use
the last-in, first-out
40
<PAGE> 45
method of inventory accounting that reflects current costs in the costs of
products sold. We consider these costs, the increasing costs of equipment and
other costs in establishing sales pricing policies. We emphasize cost
containment in all aspects of our business.
IMPACT OF THE EURO CONVERSION
In 1998, ATI initiated an internal analysis to determine the effects of the
January 1, 1999 conversion and related transition by 11 member states of the
European Union to a common currency, the "euro." The United Kingdom, where all
of our European operations are located, is not currently a participating
country. We do not expect the euro conversion to have a material impact on our
results of operation or financial condition. Like other companies with European
sales and operations, we anticipate that we will face wage and product pricing
transparency issues in participating countries; however, we do not expect the
resolution of these issues to have a material adverse effect on us.
Additionally, while we expect to encounter some technical challenges to adapt
information technology and other systems to accommodate euro-denominated
transactions, we do not anticipate associated costs to be material. Our computer
software and hardware at our European operations have been modified and replaced
due to evolving business needs and continuing technological advances.
We believe that the euro conversion will not have a material adverse effect
on our foreign currency activities described below.
HEDGING
We use derivative financial instruments from time to time to hedge ordinary
business risks regarding foreign currencies on product sales.
Foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit transactional
exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. We sometimes purchase foreign
currency forward contracts that permit us to sell specified amounts of foreign
currencies expected to be received from our export sales for pre-established
U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. The forward contracts are denominated in
the same foreign currencies in which export sales are denominated. These
contracts, which are not financially material, are designated as hedges of
export sales transactions in which settlement will occur in future periods and
which otherwise would expose us, on the basis of its aggregate net cash flows in
respective currencies, to foreign currency risk.
We believe that adequate controls are in place to monitor these hedging
activities, which are not financially material. However, many factors, including
those beyond our control such as changes in domestic and foreign political and
economic conditions, as well as the magnitude and timing of interest rate
changes, could adversely affect these activities.
ENVIRONMENTAL
We are subject to various federal, state, local and international
environmental laws and regulations which require that we investigate and
remediate the effects of the release or disposal of materials at sites
associated with past and present operations. This includes sites at which we
have been identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as
Superfund, and comparable state laws. We are currently involved in the
investigation and remediation of a number of sites. Our reserves for
environmental investigation and remediation totaled approximately $1.3 million
at September 30, 1999. As investigation and remediation of these sites proceed
and we receive new information, we expect that we will adjust our accruals to
reflect new information. Based on current information, we do not believe that
future environmental costs, in excess of those already accrued, will materially
and adversely affect our financial condition or liquidity. However, resolution
of one or more of our environmental matters or future accrual adjustments in any
one reporting period could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations for that period.
With respect to proceeding brought under the federal Superfund laws, or
similar state statutes, we have been identified as a potentially
41

responsible party at approximately 17 such sites, excluding those sites at which
we believe we have no future liability. Our involvement is very limited or de
minimis at approximately 10 of these sites, and the potential loss exposure with
respect to any of the remaining seven sites is not considered to be material.
For additional discussion of environmental matters, see Notes 2 and 12 to
our Notes to Combined Financial Statements and "Risk Factors."
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS
We perform work on a number of contracts with the Department of Defense and
other agencies and departments of the U.S. Government. Sales under contracts
with the U.S. Government, which included contracts with the Department of
Defense, were approximately 40%, 40% and 44% of our total sales for 1998, 1997
and 1996, respectively. A breakdown of sales to the U.S. Government by segment
appears in Note 11 to Notes to Combined Financial Statements. Defense sales
represented approximately 27%, 26% and 27% of our total sales for 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
Performance under government contracts has certain inherent risks that
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. Government contracts are conditioned upon the continuing
availability of Congressional appropriations, which usually occurs on a fiscal
year basis even though contract performance may take more than one year. The
U.S. defense budget has been declining since the mid-1980's, resulting in some
delays in new program starts, program stretch-outs and program cancellations.
Future levels of defense spending cannot be predicted.
Of our U.S. Government contracts, 69%, 56% and 43% were fixed price-type
contracts for the years 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Fixed price-type
contracts have the inherent risk that actual performance cost may exceed the
fixed contract price. This is particularly true where the contract was awarded
and the price finalized in advance of completion of design (which may result in
unforeseen technological difficulties and/or cost overruns). We believe that the
U.S. Government is increasingly requesting proposals for fixed price-type
contracts.
For additional discussion of government contract matters, see Note 12 to
our Notes to Combined Financial Statements, Note 4 to our Notes to Interim
Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited) and "Risk Factors."
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
Year 2000 Task Forces. Over the past several years, ATI has put in place
management task forces at its operating companies, including companies in ATI's
Aerospace and Electronics segment, to identify whether its computer systems,
which include business computers, mill equipment and process control computers
and other devices using microprocessors, as well as telecommunication and
payroll and employee benefit processing systems, would function properly with
respect to dates in the Year 2000 and thereafter. These task forces have
reported to ATI's Executive Resource Information Committee, a senior management
committee of ATI charged with reviewing and establishing priorities for
information technology-related matters, including Year 2000 issues, and which
reports to the Audit and Finance Committee of ATI's Board of Directors. Through
these efforts, Year 2000 identification, solution development, testing and
implementation initiatives, and contingency planning initiatives have proceeded
at Teledyne Technologies.
Targeted Completion of Internal Solutions. In part as a result of ATI's
Year 2000 initiatives, but mostly due to evolving business needs and continuing
technological advancements, we have been modifying and replacing portions of our
computer software and hardware systems. We estimate, based on dollars expended,
that installation of solutions to identified Year 2000 issues relating to our
information technology systems is nearly 100% complete. We estimate that based
on dollars expended nearly 100% of solutions have been implemented for our
non-information technology systems. We believe that a substantial portion of our
internal solutions relating to Year 2000 functionality of our computer systems
have been completed and implemented. Confirmatory testing of implemented
solutions is ongoing.
42
<PAGE> 47
Other Year 2000 Areas of Focus. We have provided many customers and
suppliers who we believe to be material to our business with Year 2000
questionnaires. None of the responding customers and suppliers has identified
for us any material Year 2000 issues. Efforts continue to be made to identify
and resolve other customer- and supplier-based Year 2000 issues that could
affect us and our operating and support systems. We believe that we have
identified substantially all material customer- and supplier-based Year 2000
issues. Efforts also continue to be made to identify whether products we have
produced and sold have Year 2000 issues. Various of our electronic products
contain embedded microprocessors. We believe that we have identified
substantially all products that have Year 2000 issues, primarily a limited
number of products of Teledyne Electronic Technologies and Teledyne Brown
Engineering, and we are working to resolve such issues. We believe that there
are no significant product-related Year 2000 issues. Neither Teledyne
Technologies nor ATI have conducted any extensive review of products
manufactured and sold by discontinued businesses or businesses that they have
sold.
Year 2000 Expenditures. Excluding expenditures necessitated by ordinary
business needs and continuing technological advancements in the computer
industry, we spent approximately $2.0 million in 1998 and we anticipate spending
another estimated $1.3 million in 1999 to address Year 2000 issues, of which
over $1.0 million were spent during the first nine months of 1999. These
expenditures do not include expenditures that may be required to address Year
2000 issues associated with some products. Substantially all costs related to
our Year 2000 initiatives are expensed as incurred and funded through operating
cash flows. Although we currently do not have any plans for additional
expenditures, additional amounts may be spent in later years.
Overall Assessment; Worst Case Scenario. Based upon internal assessments,
formal communications with suppliers and customers with which we exchange
electronic data, and work completed to date, we believe that Year 2000 issues
should not pose significant operational problems or have a material impact on
our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flow. A
failure of third party vendors or customers to be Year 2000 ready, however,
could adversely affect these beliefs and is not quantifiable at the present
time. Such failure could have a material adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, financial condition, or cash flow in a given period, but probably
not over the long-term. The most reasonably likely worst case scenario of our
failure (or the failure of our suppliers or customers) to resolve Year 2000
problems would be a temporary slowdown or cessation of manufacturing operations
at one or more of our facilities and our temporary inability to timely process
orders and to deliver finished products to customers. Delays in meeting
customers' orders would affect the timing of billings to and payments received
from customers with respect to orders and could result in other liabilities.
Customers' Year 2000 problems could also delay the timing of payments to us for
orders.
Contingency Plans. We have been working to establish contingency plans
with respect to our critical business and operating systems should unplanned
situations arise on or after January 1, 2000, and expect such contingency plans
to be in place prior to December 31, 1999. Most of our current contingency plans
contemplate the use of current personnel to make certain manual adjustments to
systems or to perform various tasks manually. Vacations for information
technology professionals and other relevant personnel are expected to be limited
toward the end of December 1999 and the early part of 2000 in order to have
employees on hand to assist in avoiding and responding to adverse scenarios. We
are considering establishing additional inventories and back-up procedures in
the event suppliers are unable to deliver raw materials and services in a timely
manner.

<PAGE> 48
Factors that May Affect Year 2000 Estimates. While we have been conducting
a comprehensive Year 2000 review of our computer systems and products, there may
be Year 2000-related matters that have not been identified. Actual dollar
amounts spent by us to address Year 2000 issues could materially differ from the
estimates for a number of reasons, including:
- changes in the availability or costs of personnel trained in this area;
- changes made to our remediation plans;
- the ability of our significant suppliers, customers and others with which
we conduct business, including governmental agencies, to identify and
resolve their own Year 2000 issues; or
- identification of other Year 2000-related matters.

OUR BUSINESS AND GROWTH STRATEGY
Building upon our competitive strengths and technological capabilities, our
goal is to become the leading provider of specialized products, systems
engineering solutions and information
services for a broad range of high technology applications. With our history of
product innovation, advanced research and development and highly sophisticated
engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we believe that we are
well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities
45
<PAGE> 50
to expand our business by pursuing the following strategies.
FOCUS ON OPERATING DISCIPLINE AND MANUFACTURING EXCELLENCE
Measuring and controlling manufacturing costs has become a core discipline
of Teledyne Technologies, and we are committed to a continuous improvement
philosophy. Most of our key manufacturing operations are ISO 9000 certified, and
meet the rigid military specification qualifications necessary in our markets,
where required. We have adopted a comprehensive program of manufacturing
excellence initiatives which focus on lean manufacturing cells, cost reduction
programs and product redesign in order to minimize manufacturing costs and
maximize product quality. We have also developed manufacturing technologies and
rapid prototyping capabilities that in many cases have become the standards in
their industries.
Our efforts are intended to create additional cost reductions and increased
efficiencies in management of our working capital. Our increasing emphasis on
cost reduction programs yielded savings of $7.7 million in 1997 and $22.1
million in 1998. Through active management of our working capital, working
capital as a percentage of sales decreased from 15% for 1996 to 10% for 1998. We
believe that our financial discipline will enable us to maintain our competitive
posture while continuing to provide leading edge products and services.
LEVERAGE NICHE MARKET LEADERSHIP AND TECHNICAL EXPERTISE TO INCREASE MARKET
PENETRATION
We serve high-value niche market segments where performance, precision and
reliability are critical and where we are in several cases the leading supplier.
These market segments exist within very large, highly fragmented markets for
electronic and communications equipment and devices, engineering and information
systems and services, and aviation and aerospace components.
We have a reputation for solving complex manufacturing and systems
problems, and have sophisticated software, simulation and modeling capabilities.
For example, Teledyne Technologies is recognized as a leader in the development
of real-time simulations for weapons systems testing and training. These
capabilities have led to our selection to play a key role in the U.S. Ballistic
Missile Defense Organization's National Missile Defense program.
The collective expertise and training of our employees foster a culture of
innovation and a technology-driven focus. Out of a total workforce of
approximately 5,800, approximately 1,400 individuals have engineering, physics,
mathematics and computer science degrees. Our employees have developed over 700
patents.
We believe that as several of the markets we serve experience
consolidation, customers have tended to become increasingly dependent on
technologically-sophisticated specialized suppliers, such as ourselves, to
provide a more competitive range of products and services. With our history of
product innovation, advanced research and development and highly sophisticated
engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we believe that we are
well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities to expand our niche market
leadership positions to provide leading products and services in related
markets.
ACCELERATE INTRODUCTION OF INNOVATIVE HIGH-MARGIN PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
We have a well-established history of developing innovative products and
services to meet the exacting specifications of our customers'
performance-critical applications.
For example, building on our history as the manufacturer of the engine for
the first turbine-powered cruise missile, we have developed advanced versions
leading to our sole-source position with respect to each of two new U.S. cruise
missile programs.
We are also a leading supplier of traveling wave tubes for military
applications. We have adapted this product to create our microwave power
amplifiers, which were the first to permit operation in multiple frequency bands
for mobile satellite news gathering systems. We are
46
<PAGE> 51
extending our position in power amplifiers by developing and producing
amplifiers for the emerging higher-frequency Ka band market for broadband
wireless and satellite communications systems. New products that we are
currently introducing for the emerging broadband communications market include
high frequency relays for wireless and satellite systems, high data rate
networks and high speed digital semiconductor test equipment.
As an independent company we intend to increase our spending on research
and development to accelerate the introduction of new products and services.
CAPITALIZE ON SYNERGIES TO ENTER NEW MARKETS
Our businesses are interrelated by their use of advanced engineering and
specialized technology to provide cost-effective and value-added solutions. We
believe that by better utilizing our extensive base of technical expertise that
extends across our operating units, we will be able to provide superior products
and services and to reduce product development and manufacturing costs.
For example, we have benefited from our commercial aviation electronics
experience in the development of new electronic controls for general aviation
piston engines. We plan to use the expertise of Teledyne Electronic Technologies
to provide data acquisition and communications products to the general aviation
aircraft market served by Teledyne Continental Motors. In addition, both
Teledyne Electronic Technologies and Teledyne Brown Engineering provide data
acquisition and communication products in their current markets. We believe that
we can draw on these and other capabilities to access additional markets for our
products and services.
ENHANCE AND STRENGTHEN CUSTOMER AND REGULATORY RELATIONSHIPS
We are a long-term supplier to several government agencies and major
manufacturers and integrators of systems and services. Our close relationships
are a key competitive advantage. We are often integrally involved early in our
customers' product development efforts. Our knowledge of customers' requirements
enables us to more rapidly develop products and services ideally suited to meet
those needs. This close relationship with our customers has led to a significant
amount of repeat business. We plan to capitalize on our strong relationships to
secure additional contracts as prime contractors expand their outsourcing
initiatives.
Government certification of products and facilities is required to
participate in many of the markets we serve. We have extensive experience and
established working relationships with the various federal regulatory agencies
that certify our products. For example, we work proactively with the Federal
Aviation Administration in the continuous certification processes applicable to
our commercial aviation electronics and communications products, and general
aviation engines. We are also regularly engaged in consultations with the FAA
regarding new technologies and the development of new or changing standards
applicable to our products and markets. In addition, we are able to serve the
specialized needs of our customers with medical devices, such as pacemaker and
defibrillator providers, by maintaining the registration of our medical
electronics contract manufacturing facilities with the Federal Food and Drug
Administration.
EXPAND VALUE-ADDED INFORMATION SERVICES
We believe that our extensive customer base has growing requirements for
information services and that we have the capabilities to meet these needs. For
example, our flight data acquisition systems have been purchased worldwide by
over 200 airline customers. These customers are increasingly committed to
obtaining additional operational and maintenance information to improve safety
and increase efficiency. We are developing systems that will automatically
transfer flight data to an airline's operations center soon after its aircraft
lands. These systems are designed to translate data into useable reports and
distribute the reports and raw data through the Internet.
47
<PAGE> 52
We believe that our extensive technical, engineering and manufacturing
capabilities will enable us to expand the development and sale of additional
value-added engineering and information services.
PURSUE SELECTED ACQUISITIONS AND
STRATEGIC ALLIANCES
We operate in many large, highly fragmented markets that provide
opportunities for growth through complementary acquisitions. The basic criteria
will be whether the particular acquisition:
- - has strategic value
- - achieves our financial return criteria
- - enhances our ability to achieve a market leadership position
- - provides the opportunity to grow profitability
Specifically, we expect to target acquisitions that permit:
- - a broader product offering
- - entry into new markets
- - access to product innovation and unique product design capabilities
- - access to new manufacturing processes
- - access to off-shore suppliers and increased procurement leverage
- - new distribution channels
OUR BUSINESS SEGMENTS
ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS SEGMENT
Teledyne Electronic Technologies applies proprietary technology, advanced
software and hardware design skills and manufacturing capabilities in three
areas: Data Acquisition and Communications Products; Precision Electronic
Devices; and Electronic Contract Manufacturing Services.
Data Acquisition and Communications Products
We are a leading supplier of systems and software for data acquisition and
communications applications in commercial aviation, as well as critical
components and subsystems for wireless and satellite communications terminals.
We are focused on expanding our technology base to support the emerging needs
for high data rate broadband communications technology.
We also supply a range of specialized components, subsystems and equipment
to domestic and international government aviation and aerospace customers. We
participate in the markets for data acquisition and communications equipment and
services for both air transport (including commercial passenger aircraft) and
business and commuter aircraft.
Air Transport Products. Our aircraft information management solutions are
designed to increase the safety and efficiency of airline transportation
throughout the world. With over 200 commercial airline customers, we are a
leading supplier of digital flight data acquisition systems for the commercial
airline industry. We have provided these systems for our airline customers for
over one-half of Boeing aircraft currently in production. We were recently
selected by Airbus Industrie's partner, DaimlerChrysler Aerospace-Airbus, to
provide our systems for certain of its aircraft customers. These systems acquire
both mandatory data for use by the aircraft's flight data recorder, and record
additional data for the airline's use, such as performance and engine condition
monitoring.
The markets for data acquisition and communication systems include both new
and retrofitted aircraft. Boeing estimates that the operational air transport
fleet will grow from a current fleet of 12,600 to 19,100 aircraft by 2008.
Our newest digital flight data acquisition units have the most advanced
features in the industry. These systems conform with the required expansion of
data recording capabilities, which were mandated by the FAA in 1997. At that
time, the FAA increased the number of mandatory parameters to be monitored from
17 (prior to the rule change) to 88 by the year 2002. Our flight data units also
perform additional, non-mandatory aircraft and engine condition monitoring for
use by airline customers.
48
<PAGE> 53
Business and Commuter Products. Communication capabilities for business and
commuter aircraft are growing rapidly as these aircraft have begun to mirror air
transport aircraft in data gathering and aircraft monitoring. We are one of the
largest suppliers of air-to-ground telephony and facsimile and data transmission
products to the growing business and commuter aircraft market.
Bombardier Aerospace recently selected us to provide a suite of
communications products for its new, ultra long-range Global Express business
jet. These products include an air-to-ground telephone system and our
TeleLink(TM) datalink system that link onboard avionics with ground service
providers to facilitate air traffic management and flight operations.
The business and commuter fleet is significantly larger than the air
transport fleet, with approximately 27,000 aircraft currently operational.
Forecast International, an industry consultant, projects that the business and
commuter fleet will increase by approximately 40% during the next decade. We
expect continued demand for these systems for both new installations and
upgrades by business and commuter aircraft customers.
Wireless Ground Link. In March 1999 we demonstrated a prototype of our new
Wireless Ground Link that automates the transfer of in-flight data recorded by
our data acquisition systems to an airline's operations center. Transmission of
the data can occur anytime an aircraft is on the ground utilizing the existing
digital wireless infrastructure. The raw data are then forwarded to the airline
through the Internet, where they can be processed into useful formats by our
Flight Data Replay and Analysis System. Such data can then be used by the
airline in scheduling maintenance services and implementing safety procedures.
Wireless and Satellite Communication Components. Our communications
components and subsystems are used in satellite earth terminals, communications
satellites, and base stations for Personal Communication Services (PCS) and
wireless local loops. The technology that we apply to wireless and satellite
communications originated in defense applications.
We supply power amplifiers used in the L, C and Ku band satellite uplink
transmitters. These products encompass both solid state monolithic microwave
integrated circuits and high power helix traveling wave tubes. Applications
include Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSATs) used for credit card verification,
corporate networking, and mobile news gathering.
The markets for both wireless and satellite systems are being driven by the
growing need for high data rate (HDR) communications. In order to obtain
sufficient bandwidth to support transmission of these data, wireless and
satellite systems are moving to higher frequencies.
We are extending our position in power amplifiers by developing and
producing amplifiers for the emerging higher-frequency Ka band market for
broadband wireless and satellite communications systems. According to Allied
Business Intelligence and other independent market analysts, the market segment
for high frequency solid state power amplifiers is projected to grow from
approximately $47 million in 1999 to $118 million in 2003.
We have developed a unique line of microwave filters that are manufactured
with a patented injection molding technique. These metal-plated plastic filters
are lighter in weight than competing metal filters, and can be used efficiently
in the new lightweight microcell and picocell base stations for PCS systems. Our
filters and our new VSAT transceivers have applications in wireless local loops,
which are used to supply communications infrastructure in the developing world
where the cost and time to deploy wireline communications can be excessive.
Defense and Space Electronics. We are a leading supplier of high power
traveling wave tubes for electronic warfare systems, radar systems, and military
satellite communications systems for both domestic and international
applications. Our tubes are used in airborne systems on many aircraft, including
the B-52, B-1B, F-15 and E-A6B, and Global Hawk, and
49
<PAGE> 54
on surface systems, such as AEGIS ships. We believe that there will be a
continuing demand for our tubes in both new and existing systems.
We believe that the use of traveling wave tubes for radar applications will
grow as these systems are upgraded with advanced capabilities that cannot be
achieved with current transmitter technologies.
We have also supplied thousands of microprocessor-controlled ejection seat
sequencers for U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy tactical aircraft, such as the F-16,
F-18 and the new F-22 fighter.
Precision Electronic Devices
We develop and manufacture microelectronic devices, high-performance
relays, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), high-density connectors and
precision instruments that are engineered for demanding applications in the
defense, commercial aerospace, medical, instrumentation and industrial markets
where small size, high performance and reliability are of paramount importance.
We also provide precision instruments to manufacturers in these industries.
Microelectronic Devices. Our hybrid microcircuits are used in applications
such as military (including F-18 and F-22 aircraft and the M1A2 tank),
aerospace, medical and instrumentation systems. These compact and complex
electronic building blocks combine multiple transistors and integrated circuits
in multi-chip modules (MCMs). Our fiber optic transmitter and receiver modules
are used for video distribution on the International Space Station.
We have applied our MCM technology to the manufacture of life sustaining
and life enhancing implantable medical devices, including cardiac pacemakers and
defibrillators, neural stimulators and cochlear implant hearing aids. Newer
products include biological signal sensors and ambulatory digital recorders for
diagnosis and monitoring of epilepsy and sleep disorders. These products are
distributed on a private label basis by our customers. Our medical manufacturing
operations are FDA-registered, and like all of our electronics manufacturing
facilities, are certified to ISO 9000.
High-Performance Relays. Our Teledyne Relays miniature electromechanical
relays are used where maintenance of signal fidelity is essential. Examples of
applications include switching of high-speed digital and microwave signals in
semiconductor and microwave test equipment, wireless systems and communications
satellites. According to Venture Development, an industry consultant, the
telecommunications and instrumentation relay market is approximately $870
million annually and is expected to grow at more than 5% per year.
Growth in the transmission of broadband data via the Internet, increases in
clock speeds of microprocessors, and the migration of wireless and satellite
systems to higher frequency bands are all contributing to a need for switching
devices that operate at higher frequencies. With the introduction of our new
high-frequency relay in 1999, we more than tripled the range of frequencies that
can be switched reliably and accurately by available technologies.
Microelectromechanical Systems. We are leveraging our experience with
precision electromechanical devices and microelectronics fabrication technology
to develop new MEMS. The first product we are developing in this line is a
microrelay based on an exclusively licensed patented electromagnetic actuation
technique. The microrelay will be significantly smaller than current
electromechanical relays, an important factor in modern, miniaturized electronic
systems, and will provide us with access to a new market segment in which we do
not currently compete. Venture Development estimates this market segment to be
approximately $150 million.
High-Density Connectors. We supply custom, low profile, surface mount
connectors for applications in computer disk drives and consumer medical
electronic devices. We have increased our development efforts for high-density
microprocessor connectors, targeted for use in high-volume applications such as
personal computers and workstations and personal communication systems handsets.
Prismark Partners, an industry consultant, estimates that the
50
<PAGE> 55
market for this type of connector will grow from 100 million units per year in
1999 to 200 million by 2003, with the price of a typical connector expected to
be approximately $6.
Precision Instruments. We design and manufacture precision instruments for
process applications in semiconductor and petrochemical manufacturing with a
broad line of analyzers for oxygen and other gases, vacuum gauges, and mass flow
meters and controllers. These instruments are sold under the Teledyne Analytical
Instruments and Teledyne Hastings brand names.
Electronic Contract Manufacturing Services
We operate turnkey manufacturing facilities in Tennessee, Mexico and
Scotland for low-to-moderate volume, technically-sophisticated products, ranging
from individual printed circuit board assemblies to complete electronic systems,
used in the aerospace, medical and communications industries. We manufacture
subsystems used in such diverse products as weapons release systems and medical
magnetic resonance imaging systems. Our customers include major aerospace and
electronics companies. Our production capabilities include through-hole, surface
mount and multi-chip module assembly; and digital, analog, radio frequency and
microwave testing.
Our patented REGAL(R) rigid-flex technology combines rigid and flexible
printed circuits into one assembly that eliminates board-to-board connectors,
which results in improved reliability and packaging density. These rigid-flex
circuit boards are used in military (such as the AMRAAM missiles, the Airborne
Self Protection Jammer and the Apache Longbow Helicopter), commercial aerospace
and medical applications. In late 1998 we added rapid prototyping capability for
rigid-flex printed circuits to improve customer service.
During 1998 we expanded our capacity for low-cost manufacturing in Mexico.
Subject to prevailing labor conditions, we plan additional growth in Mexico and
at our Scotland facility. According to Frost & Sullivan, an industry consultant,
the market for military electronic contract manufacturing services was
approximately $800 million in 1998 and is expected to grow at an 8% annual rate
as major military systems companies increasingly focus more on integration of
systems and rely on merchant suppliers for electronics manufacturing.
SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS SEGMENT
Teledyne Brown Engineering offers a wide range of engineering solutions and
information services to government defense, aerospace and commercial customers.
Our software solutions center on the following five areas:
- - Aerospace Solutions
- - Defense Solutions
- - Information Services
- - Environmental Solutions
- - Enterprise Control and Energy Products
Aerospace Solutions
We provide a broad range of highly sophisticated engineering solutions and
services to U.S. space programs. U.S. Government budgeted expenditures in this
market are approximately $10.3 billion in 1999.
As the payload integration contractor for NASA's Marshall Space Flight
Center, we have had major responsibilities in the numerous scientific missions
of the Space Shuttle. This work has ranged from experiment planning, through
designing and fabricating interface hardware, to manning the mission control
center during flight operations.
The centerpiece of our current space activities is the International Space
Station. We are involved in both space-borne and ground-support hardware
development and we participate in mission planning and operations. We have
approximately 300 people working on International Space Station projects and
realized sales associated with these projects of approximately $25 million in
1998. We expect to generate a similar level of revenue with respect to these
projects in 1999.
The development and integration of complex ground support equipment has
long been one of
51
<PAGE> 56
our specialties. Recognition of this is reflected in our selection by the U.S.
Air Force to produce three prototype aircraft cargo loaders as a part of the Air
Force's Next Generation Small Loader program.
Defense Solutions
For over 45 years, we have played a key role in the development of U.S.
defense systems. The Department of Defense has budgeted $4.04 billion in
expenditures in 1999 for various missile defense programs, which are projected
to grow at a modest rate for the next five years. The current projected 2000
budget for the National Missile Defense program is approximately $800 million
and is projected to grow to $1.8 billion in 2002. During the last 10 years
alone, our systems engineering solutions in defense technologies have averaged
over 1,000,000 man-hours per year.
In ballistic missile defense programs, we have provided solutions in
systems engineering, integration, and testing; real-time distributed testing and
training; radar and optical systems design; command center development; and
intelligence studies and threat analysis. We provide battle simulation software
as part of our role for the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense Organization's
National Missile Defense program.
We also provide an array of engineering solutions related to combat systems
technologies, including research and development test support, operational test
and evaluation, systems survivability analysis, and body armor development.
Information Services
One of our strongest capabilities is in information technology. The
government sector of the information technology market is approximately $33.6
billion in 1999, and is expected to grow at an annual rate of between 4% and
10%. Approximately 30% of our contracts are in this sector.
Our software products, most of which are certified to ISO 9001, are used
for highly diverse applications, such as high-fidelity simulations, multi-media
training, Internet website development, distributed real-time testing, and
command and control centers.
We have developed hundreds of simulation programs, including the Extended
Air Defense Simulation, which is used by friendly governments worldwide and was
combat-proven during Operation Desert Storm and more recent operations. We have
recently upgraded the U.S. Army's land-combat model to include amphibious and
tactical air operations.
We are recognized as a leader in the development of real-time, vehicle-and
weapons-integrated simulations for systems testing and training. Our Systems
Exerciser is a simulation tool used to verify the inter-operational
compatibility of geographically separated, complex defense systems. The Systems
Exerciser "drives" actual weapons systems with a simulated environment including
threats, weather and terrain, creating a robust virtual world in which real
systems can operate and interact.
We have been continuously involved in weapons signature management
development efforts since 1989, with over 47 successful programs, of which 37
were sole source contracts. We are particularly well-known for systems that
limit the detection of soldiers on the battlefield by radar or infrared sensors,
as to which we hold several issued and pending patents. The Optical Signatures
Code, which we developed and maintain, is the recognized standard in missile
defense. We also developed the world's largest on-line database for optical
signatures.
Environmental Solutions
We utilize our systems engineering solutions to assist the U.S. Government
in complying with terms of the Chemical Weapons Convention Treaty. This Treaty
requires the United States to destroy all chemical weapons and materiel by 2007.
As a 50% participant in a joint venture, we are developing alternative
technologies to incineration for the destruction of stockpile chemical
munitions. We are presently the only contractor operating in the non-stockpile
chemical munitions sector. As the prime contractor for the U.S. Army's
Non-Stockpile Chemical Materiel Demil-
52
<PAGE> 57
itarization program, we are designing, fabricating, integrating, and testing
equipment to safely destroy small caches of chemical munitions and materiel
located in over 30 states.
We were recently selected by the Air Force to establish and operate a
highly-specified analysis laboratory. This laboratory, used for performing
nuclear forensic analysis of gas samples, has been operated for many years by
military personnel at McClellan Air Force Base in California, and is now being
transferred to contractor operation.
Enterprise Control and Energy Products
Our systems engineering capabilities are applied to energy problems through
a variety of services and products. Our OpenVector(TM) supervisory control and
data acquisition systems are used for managing over half of the gas
transportation pipelines in the United States, and we have recently added new
international customers in South Korea, Hungary and Brazil. While most of our
Open Vector(TM) software sales have been in the United States, additional
significant market opportunities exist in the international arena as well as in
new applications such as satellite control. Applications of OpenVector(TM)
software are expanding into water/waste water control and general enterprise
consolidated information management. Frost & Sullivan has estimated that the
international market for commercial system control and data acquisition
applications would be approximately $2.6 billion in 1998 and will grow at
approximately 15% per year.
We manufacture and sell low-power, continuously-operating electrical
generators utilized in energy remote locations. We market our line of low-power
radioisotope thermoelectric generators under the SENTINEL(TM) brand name. One of
our units aboard the Pioneer spacecraft has exited the solar system, after
flawlessly providing power for more than two decades. Our TELAN(TM)
thermoelectric systems provide up to 90 watts of constant, reliable power at
remote locations throughout the world. Our recently announced 2.5-kilowatt
Minotaur(TM) engine-generator system runs on natural gas and is designed for
long-term, continuous, low-maintenance operation for the oil and gas production
industry, and to provide prime power for applications in emerging countries that
lack sophisticated infrastructures.
AEROSPACE ENGINES AND COMPONENTS SEGMENT
Our Aerospace Engines and Components segment, through Teledyne Continental
Motors and Teledyne Cast Parts, focuses on the design, development and
manufacture of piston engines, turbine engines, electronic engine controls,
batteries and metal castings.
Piston Engines
We design, develop and manufacture piston engines and ignition systems for
major general aviation airframe manufacturers and provide spare parts and engine
rebuilding services. We are one of two primary worldwide producers of piston
engines and after-market service providers for the general aviation marketplace.
Over 300,000 piston-powered aircraft have been produced since the inception
of the general aviation industry. The active fleet of single and twin-engine
aircraft is estimated to be 165,000, with approximately 200,000 engines
currently in service. We estimate that our engines power approximately one half
of the active fleet. The average age of this fleet is approximately 30 years.
Our share of the installed base is extremely important in a business in which
repair and replacement parts can provide substantial ongoing revenue.
Our product lines include engines powering the industry benchmark Raytheon
Beech Bonanza and Baron aircraft, the Mooney Aircraft line of advanced single
engine aircraft, and the popular New Piper Seneca V twin-engine aircraft. In
addition to these long-standing products, all four new high-speed, composite
aircraft currently entering production will be powered by our engines. These are
the Cirrus SR20, Lancair Columbia, Diamond Katana C1, and the Extra 400.
The market for piston powered general aviation aircraft has shown a strong
resurgence in recent years. Following the passage of the
53
<PAGE> 58
General Aviation Revitalization Act (GARA) of 1994, which limited manufacturers'
product liability for aircraft over 18 years in age, the domestic production of
new aircraft has increased from 444 new units in 1994 to over 1,500 units in
1998. Following the passage of GARA, the industry has introduced new and
advanced airframes and avionics and increased the rate of spending for new
product research and development. Additionally, NASA is sponsoring three new
programs aimed at increasing the efficient commercial use of small general
aviation aircraft. NASA is also co-sponsoring our development of a new engine
that will use commonly available and less expensive Jet-A fuel.
In addition to the sales of new aircraft engines to aircraft producers, we
also actively support the aircraft engine aftermarket. Piston aircraft engines
are produced with a finite utilization life generally expressed as time between
overhaul (TBO). Rebuilding or overhauling of the engine is required at TBO,
which can range between 1,600 and 2,000 hours for our aircraft engines. With an
installed base of approximately 100,000 Teledyne Continental Motors engines and
an average aircraft utilization of 133 hours per year, approximately 10,000 of
our aircraft engines can be expected to be overhauled in the aftermarket each
year. Our aftermarket support includes the rebuilding of nearly 3,000 of these
units annually with our Gold Medallion Rebuilt Engine. We also provide a full
complement of spare parts such as cylinders, crankcases, fuel systems,
crankshafts, camshafts and ignition products.
Our Aerosance unit has developed the first first full authority digital
electronic controls for piston aircraft engines. These controls are designed to
automate many functions that currently require manual control, such as fuel
flow, ignition and power management. This system also saves fuel as a result of
improved engine management. We believe that these control systems, which are in
the process of FAA certification testing, will become standard equipment on new
aircraft, and will be retrofitted on higher-end, piston-powered general aviation
aircraft.
Turbine Engines
We design, develop and manufacture small turbine engines for missiles and
unmanned aerial vehicles. We also produce engines that power military trainer
aircraft. Since the late 1950s, we have delivered over 20,000 of these engines
to defense contractors. We believe that the near-term demand for these engines
will increase as a result of the depletion of cruise missiles in recent
international conflicts.
Our J402 engine powers the HARPOON missile system. Derivatives of this
engine power the Standoff Land Attack Missile and the Standoff Land Attack
Missile Expanded Response. Over 7,400 of these engines have been produced for
these missile systems, which are deployed by the U.S. Navy and various NATO
countries.
A derivative of the J402 engine has been selected by Lockheed Martin to
power the Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile which is scheduled to be fielded
in 2002. The U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Navy plan to purchase approximately
2,400 of these missiles by 2008. Another derivative has been selected by
Raytheon to provide propulsion for the Tactical Tomahawk Cruise Missile, with
over 1,300 missiles planned for field deployment beginning in 2003. We are the
sole source provider of engines for the Joint Air to Surface Standoff and
Tactical Tomahawk cruise missiles systems.
Another of our engines provides the turbine power for the Improved Tactical
Air Launched Decoy being built for the U.S. Navy. This system enhances stand-off
capability by identifying the enemy radar sources for lethal weapons. This
low-cost turbine engine is the first of a family of lower-thrust engines to
enter production.
Another of our engines serves as the propulsion source for the T-37
aircraft, the primary jet trainer for the U.S. Air Force. This engine has been
in service for over 40 years and will continue to power the T-37 well into the
next decade. We are the sole source for major spare parts for this engine.
54
<PAGE> 59
Battery Products
Our battery products operations specialize in the design, development and
manufacture of engineered products for the lead acid battery markets. We are
focused on providing engineered products in niche markets with more favorable
margins than typical battery products.
We design, develop and manufacture dry-charged batteries that can be stored
for years without deterioration. Our maintenance-free, valve-regulated,
recombinant batteries offer electrical performance and rechargeable
characteristics that are superior to other types of maintenance-free batteries.
Our Gill(TM) line of lead acid batteries is widely recognized as the
premier dry-charged, starting and standby power source for general aviation.
More companies manufacturing new general aviation aircraft choose the Gill(TM)
product line than any other lead acid battery.
The technical characteristics of our batteries offer the possibility of
sales to growing non-aviation markets, such as the cable television and
telecommunications industries backup.
Cast Parts
Teledyne Cast Parts offers a wide range of complex sand-cast aluminum and
magnesium castings and nickel-based superalloy and stainless steel investment
castings to the aerospace and defense industries. Premium quality castings are
produced from various processes in accordance with military, aerospace and
commercial customer specifications to exacting tolerances and mechanical
strengths.
Our major customers include airframe and turbine engine manufacturers,
missile producers and other defense contractors. We supply castings to the U.S.
Navy for use in its Phalanx weapons system, as well as castings used in Tomahawk
Cruise Missiles, jet engines and armament systems for both airborne and land
vehicles.
Based on publicly-available sales data, we estimate that the market for
aluminum and magnesium casting was approximately $1 billion in 1998 and the
market for air melt steel and vacuum melt superalloys was approximately $2.6
billion. The metals casting industry has been highly fragmented and has
experienced consolidation in recent years. We believe that this trend may
provide us with additional growth opportunities.
SALES AND MARKETING
No commercial customer accounted for more than 10% of our total sales
during 1998, 1997 or 1996. Approximately 40%, 40% and 44% of our total sales for
1998, 1997 and 1996 were derived from contracts with agencies of, and prime
contractors to, the U.S. Government. We do not regard sales to the U.S.
Government as constituting sales to a single customer, because various U.S.
Government customers exercise independent purchasing decisions.
Our principal U.S. Government customer is the U.S. Department of Defense.
Our largest program with the U.S. Government, the Systems Engineering and
Technical Assistance contract with the Space and Missiles Defense Command
accounted for 7.3%, 7.1% and 8% of total sales for 1998, 1997 and 1996. No other
program represented more than 4% of total sales for 1998, 1997 and 1996. Sales
by our segments to agencies of and prime contractors to, the U.S. Government in
each of the past three years were as follows:

</TABLE>
Our sales and marketing approach varies by segment and by products within
our segments. A shared fundamental tenet is the commitment to work closely with
our customers to understand their needs, with an aim to secure preferred
supplier and longer-term relationships.
Our business segments use a combination of internal sales forces,
distributors and commis-
55
<PAGE> 60
sioned sales representatives to market and sell our products and services.
Products are also advertised in appropriate trade journals and by means of
various Internet web sites. To promote our products and other capabilities, our
personnel regularly participate in relevant trade shows and professional
associations. Many of our government contracts are awarded after a competitive
bidding process in which we seek to emphasize our ability to provide superior
products and technical solutions in addition to competitive pricing.
COMPETITION
We believe that technological capabilities and innovation and the ability
to invest in the development of new and enhanced products are critical to
obtaining and maintaining leadership in our markets and the industries in which
we compete generally. Although we have certain advantages that we believe help
us compete in our markets effectively, each of our markets is highly
competitive. Our businesses variously compete on the basis of quality, product
performance and reliability, technical expertise, price and service. Many of our
competitors have, and potential competitors could have, greater name
recognition, a larger installed base of products, more extensive engineering,
manufacturing, marketing and distribution capabilities and greater financial,
technological and personnel resources than we do.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
We spent a total of $160.5 million, $175.0 million, $188.8 million and
$202.6 million on research and development for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Customer-funded research
and development, most of which was attributable to work under contracts with the
U.S. Government, represented approximately 87%, 86%, 85%, and 86% of total
research and development costs for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and
for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
While we own and control various intellectual property rights, including
patents, trade secrets, confidential information, trademarks, trade names, and
copyrights, which, in the aggregate, are of material importance to our business,
our management believes that our business as a whole is not materially dependent
upon any one intellectual property or related group of such properties. We own
over 700 active patents and are licensed to use certain patents, technology and
other intellectual property rights owned and controlled by others. Similarly,
other companies are licensed to use certain patents, technology and other
intellectual property rights owned and controlled by us.
Patents, patent applications and license agreements will expire or
terminate over time by operation of law, in accordance with their terms or
otherwise. We do not expect the expiration or termination of these patents,
patent applications and license agreements to have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations or financial condition.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we become involved in various lawsuits, claims and
proceedings related to the conduct of our business. While we cannot predict the
outcome of any lawsuits, claims or proceedings, our management does not believe
that the disposition of any pending matters is likely to have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition or liquidity.
EMPLOYEES
Out of a total workforce of 5,800, approximately 1,400 individuals have
engineering, physics, mathematics or computer science degrees. Approximately 370
of our employees are represented by the International Union of United
Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America under a
collective bargaining agreement that expires on December 16, 2000. We consider
our relations with our employees to be good.
ARRANGEMENTS WITH ATI
RELATING TO THE SPIN-OFF
For the purpose of governing certain of the relationships between ATI and
Teledyne Technologies relating to the spin-off, to provide for an orderly
transition and for other matters, ATI and Teledyne Technologies will enter into
the agreements described below, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to
the Registration Statement of which this Information Statement is a part. The
following summaries of the material terms of these agreements are qualified by
reference to the agreements as so filed.
SEPARATION AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
ATI and Teledyne Technologies and certain other companies affiliated with
ATI will enter into a Separation and Distribution Agreement that will provide
for the principal corporate transactions required to effect the separation of
our businesses from those of ATI, the spin-off and certain other matters
governing the relationship among us after the spin-off.
To separate our businesses from other businesses of ATI, the subsidiary of
ATI that has historically held most of the assets used in our businesses will
transfer those assets to us and we will purchase the remaining assets used in
our business from other subsidiaries of ATI, without representation or warranty
and on an "as is," "where is" basis and "with all faults". We will assume all
liabilities associated with our businesses, including those arising from the
operation of our businesses both before and after the spin-off.
Each of ATI and Teledyne Technologies will release the other from all other
obligations and liabilities owed to such party existing on the date of the
spin-off, other than liabilities and obligations arising under the Separation
and Distribution Agreement and the other agreements entered into in connection
with the spin-off. Likewise, each of ATI and Teledyne Technologies will
indemnify the other for liabilities arising from a breach of these agreements or
the failure to pay or discharge the liabilities assumed by such party under the
Separation and Distribution Agreement.
The Separation and Distribution Agreement requires that we initiate a
public offering of our common stock within eight months following the spin-off,
and complete the public offering within one year following the spin-off. It also
requires that we use proceeds of the offering as contemplated by the tax ruling
request. It was represented in the tax ruling request that we expected that
gross proceeds of the public offering would be approximately $125 million, and
that we intend to use the net proceeds of the offering for research and
development and related capital projects, for further development of our
manufacturing capabilities, and for acquisitions and/or joint ventures.
We are currently an additional named insured under various ATI insurance
policies. Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, we will be entitled
to the benefit of pre-spin-off historical coverage under ATI's property,
liability and certain other insurance policies to the extent coverage is
applicable or potentially
58
<PAGE> 63
available and where limits of liability have not
been exhausted, either on a per occurrence or aggregate basis. The terms and
conditions of these policies, including limits of liability, will not be amended
as a consequence of the spin-off. To the extent that these policies feature a
deductible or self-insured retention, we will continue to be responsible for our
allocable share of the deductibles and retentions, based on the same allocation
formulas that applied prior to the spin-off and, in the case of aircraft product
liability policies, to the full extent of the deductible or retention for each
claim made against our Company under those policies.
The Separation and Distribution Agreement provides that until the third
annual meeting of our stockholders held following the spin-off, at least a
majority of our directors will also be members of the Board of Directors of ATI.
The initial members of our board of directors will be Thomas A. Corcoran, Diane
C. Creel and C. Fred Fetterolf (Class I), Paul S. Brentlinger and Robert
Mehrabian (Class II) and Robert P. Bozzone, Frank V. Cahouet and Charles J.
Queenan, Jr. (Class III). The Separation and Distribution Agreement also
provides that we will nominate Mr. Corcoran, Ms. Creel and Mr. Fetterolf (or, if
any such director is unable or unwilling to serve, such other candidate as
Messrs. Bozzone, Cahouet and Queenan or the survivor of them shall designate)
for re-election as a Class I director at the first annual meeting of our
stockholders following the spin-off.
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AGREEMENT
Prior to the date of the spin-off, ATI and Teledyne Technologies will enter
into an Employee Benefits Agreement to set forth the manner in which assets and
liabilities under employee benefit plans and other employment-related
liabilities will be divided between them, and to help ensure a smooth transition
for employees' benefits in the spin-off. In general, we will be responsible for
compensation and employee benefits relating to our employees.
The Employee Benefits Agreement provides that we will establish a new
defined benefit pension plan on terms substantially similar to the parts of
ATI's Pension Plan applicable to all of our employees, both active and inactive
at our operations which perform government contract work and for our active
employees at our operations which do not perform government contract work. It is
anticipated that we will receive pension assets equal to liabilities as well as
approximately $50 million in surplus pension assets. With this transfer, it is
anticipated that we will not have to make a pension contribution in the
foreseeable future. In addition, we will assume certain retiree medical
obligations and should be able to withdraw cash from our pension plan to pay our
retiree medical costs.
The Employee Benefits Agreement will also provide for the treatment of
outstanding options to acquire ATI common stock issued under ATI benefit plans.
At the time of the spin-off, ATI stock options held by our employees will be
converted into options to purchase shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock.
The number of shares the option holder would be able to purchase and the
exercise price of the options would be adjusted in the conversion based on the
relationship of the ATI stock price and the stock price of Teledyne
Technologies, so that the "intrinsic value" of the options (that is, the
difference between the market value of the stock acquired on the exercise and
the exercise price of the options) before the spin-off would be equivalent to
the intrinsic value of the options immediately after the spin-off. The options
would otherwise continue to be and become exercisable on the terms and
conditions set forth in the original ATI benefit plans.
Under the Employee Benefit Agreement, the current award period under the
ATI Performance Share Program would be terminated when the spin-off occurs.
ATI's compensation committee will determine the amount of the awards, if any,
that have been earned, based on the achievement of plan goals through the
spin-off date, and will make awards pro-rated for the shortened Program term.
Pursuant to the Program, payments will be made in cash and stock. Stock payments
to our employees will be paid in Teledyne Technologies common stock. Pursuant to
the Program, we will make the payments in three annual installments,
59
<PAGE> 64
with the first payment expected to be made early in the year 2000.
The Employee Benefits Agreement also provides for the treatment of
purchased, designated and restricted shares issued under the ATI Stock
Acquisition and Retention Program prior to the spin-off. Under the Agreement,
participants who have purchased or designated ATI shares will receive
distributions of the common stock of Teledyne Technologies and Water Pik
Technologies in the spin-offs on the purchased or designated ATI shares. The
shares they receive in the spin-off, as well as the original ATI shares, will
continue to be held as collateral for the loans for the purchased shares, all of
which will be retained by ATI, until the loans are fully paid. Restricted shares
issued under the Program to our employees will be converted into shares of
Teledyne Technologies common stock. The new Teledyne Technologies shares will
also be restricted shares until the restriction lapse on the terms and
conditions set forth in the original ATI Program.
The Employee Benefits Agreement provides, in general, that we will receive
no assets with which to fund liabilities under non-qualified plans. An exception
applies with respect to the Allegheny Teledyne Executive Deferred Compensation
Plan under which employees with total annual compensation in excess of $100,000
may elect to defer a portion or all of their salary and/or bonus; it is
anticipated that we will receive company-owned life insurance policies or other
assets with a cash value equal to the amount of deferred compensation
liabilities at the time of the spin-off. In addition, while we would assume
liabilities for pension benefits in excess of qualified plan limits under the
Teledyne, Inc. Pension Equalization Plan, ATI would guarantee to participants
the payments of these obligations -- as of the spin-off date -- if we cannot pay
such obligations.
TAX SHARING AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
On or prior to the date of the spin-off, ATI and Teledyne Technologies will
enter into a Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement that will set forth each
party's rights and obligations regarding payment and refunds, if any, with
respect to taxes for periods before and after the spin-off and related matters
such as the filing of tax returns and the conduct of audits or other proceedings
involving claims made by taxing authorities.
In general, ATI will be responsible for filing consolidated U.S. federal
and consolidated, combined or unified state income tax returns for periods
through the date of the spin-off, and for paying the taxes relating to such
returns including any subsequent adjustments resulting from the redetermination
of such tax liability by the applicable taxing authorities. We will be
responsible for other taxes attributable to our operations.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement provides that we will
indemnify ATI and its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives
for any taxes imposed on, or other amounts paid by, them or ATI's stockholders,
if we take actions or fail to take actions (such as completing the public
offering) that result in the spin-off not qualifying as a tax-free distribution.
For example, pursuant to the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement, Teledyne
Technologies will agree that for a two-year period following the date of the
spin-off: (i) we will continue to engage in the Teledyne Technologies
businesses; (ii) we will continue to own and manage at least 50% of the assets
which we own directly or indirectly immediately after the spin-off; and (iii) we
will not, unless we obtain the written consent of ATI, engage in a number of
specified transactions. Transactions subject to these restrictions will include,
among others, issuance of Teledyne Technologies common stock (or certain
derivatives of our stock) in amounts which represent 40% or more of the Teledyne
Technologies common stock, issuance of instruments other than Teledyne
Technologies common stock (or derivatives of our stock) constituting equity for
U.S. federal tax purposes, certain redemptions and other acquisitions of capital
stock or equity securities of Teledyne Technologies, or the merger, dissolution
or liquidation of our company.
60
<PAGE> 65
If our obligations under the Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement were
breached and the spin-off were to fail to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal
income tax purposes as a result of such breach, we would be required to satisfy
the indemnification obligation described above. This indemnification obligation
could exceed our net worth at that time.
Though valid as between the parties thereto, the Tax Sharing and
Indemnification Agreement is not binding on the IRS and does not affect the
several liability of ATI, Teledyne Technologies and their respective
subsidiaries to the IRS for all U.S. federal taxes of the consolidated group
relating to periods prior to the spin-off.
INTERIM SERVICES AGREEMENT
On or prior to the date of the spin-off, ATI and Teledyne Technologies will
enter into an Interim Services Agreement pursuant to which ATI will provide us
with transitional administrative and support services for a period of time not
expected to exceed 12 months. The Interim Services Agreement will provide that
we will pay a fee to ATI intended to approximate ATI's cost for such services
plus 10%.
The Interim Services Agreement will provide that we will indemnify ATI for
all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and costs incurred by ATI to a third
party arising in connection with the provisions of a service under the
agreement, other than those costs resulting from ATI's willful misconduct or
gross negligence. In general, we can terminate an interim service after an
agreed notice period.
TRADEMARK LICENSE AGREEMENT
On or prior to the date of the spin-off, an affiliate of ATI and Teledyne
Technologies will enter into certain intellectual property related agreements,
including a license agreement pursuant to which Teledyne Technologies will be
granted a license to use the "Teledyne" name and related logos, symbols and
marks (collectively, "Teledyne Marks") in connection with Teledyne Technologies
operations after the spin-off. Under the terms of this license agreement,
Teledyne Technologies will have the right to use the Teledyne Marks anywhere in
the world in connection with the manufacture, distribution, marketing,
advertising, promotion and sale of its products. We have agreed to pay an annual
fee of $100,000 for this license and at the end of five years have an option to
purchase all rights and interests in the Teledyne Marks for $412,000.

MANAGEMENT
DIRECTORS
Our Board of Directors is expected initially to consist of the individuals
named below. Until the third annual meeting of our stockholders following the
spin-off, at least a majority of the members of our Board of Directors will also
be directors of ATI. See "Arrangements with ATI Relating to the
Spin-Off -- Separation and Distribution Agreement" and "Description of Our
Capital Stock."
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we will have three classes
of directors, the initial terms of office of which will expire, respectively, at
the annual meeting of stockholders in 2000, 2001 and 2002. Successors to any
directors whose terms are expiring are elected to three-year terms and hold

PERSONNEL AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. The Personnel and Compensation
Committee will:

management organization matters.
- - Make recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning compensation and
benefits for employees who are also our directors, consult with our Chief
Executive Officer on compensation and benefit matters relating to other
officers who are required to file reports under Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("statutory insiders") and make
recommendations to the board of directors concerning compensation policies and

- - Make recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning policy matters
relating to employee benefits and employee benefit plans.
- - Make awards of stock-based compensation to officers who are our statutory
insiders.

STOCK INCENTIVE AWARD SUBCOMMITTEE. The Stock Incentive Award Subcommittee
will be responsible for administering and making awards under our stock-based
incentive compensation programs for officers, referred to as "statutory
insiders," who are required to file reports under Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.
None of the subcommittee members will be an employee of Teledyne
Technologies. Each member will be a "non-employee director" for the purposes of
Rule 16b-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and an "outside director"
64
<PAGE> 69
for the purposes of the compensation provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
COMPENSATION OF OUR DIRECTORS
Directors who are not our employees will be paid an annual retainer fee of
$24,000. The non-employee chairman of the Board of Directors will be paid an
annual retainer fee of $25,000. Directors will also be paid $1,200 for each
board meeting and $1,000 for each committee meeting attended, although the
non-employee chairman of the Board of Directors will not receive any
compensation for attending board meetings. Each non-employee chair of a
committee will be paid an annual fee of $2,500. Directors who are our employees
will not receive any compensation for their services on our board or its
committees.
The non-employee directors will also participate in the 1999 Non-Employee
Director Stock Compensation Plan (the "Director Stock Plan"). The purpose of the
Director Stock Plan is to provide non-employee directors with an increased
personal interest in our performance.
Under the Director Stock Plan, options to purchase 2,000 shares of our
common stock will be granted to non-employee directors on the date of the
distribution of our common stock to ATI stockholders and at the conclusion of
each annual meeting of stockholders. If, after the spin-off, a non-employee
director first becomes a director on a date other than an annual meeting date,
an option covering 2,000 shares of our common stock will be granted to such
non-employee director on his or her first date of board service. The purchase
price of our common stock covered by these options will be the fair market value
of our common stock on the date the option is granted.
The Director Stock Plan also provides that each non-employee director will
receive at least 25% of the annual retainer fee in the form of our common stock
and/or options to acquire our common stock. Each director may elect a greater
percentage. Options granted under this part of the Director Stock Plan are
intended to provide each electing director with options having an exercise value
on the date of grant equal to the foregone fees; that is, the difference between
the exercise price and the market price of the underlying shares of common stock
on the date of grant is intended to be equal to the foregone fees.
In order to continue to attract and retain non-employee directors of
exceptional ability and experience, we will also maintain a Fee Continuation
Plan for Non-Employee Directors. Under the plan, benefits will be payable to a
person who serves as a non-employee director for at least five years. The annual
benefit will equal the retainer fee in effect when the director retires from the
board. Benefits will be paid for each year of the participant's credited service
as a director up to a maximum of ten years.
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Set forth below are the name, age, position and office to be held with us,
and principal occupations and employment during the past five years, of those

following the spin-off. Those individuals named below who are currently officers

Under the Employee Benefits Agreement, the current award period under the
ATI Performance Share Program would be terminated when the spin-off occurs and
ATI's compensation committee will determine the amount of awards, if any, that
have been earned. Stock awards
69
<PAGE> 74
payable under the Program to our employees will be payable in shares of our
common stock. See "Arrangements with ATI Relating to the Spin-Off--Employee
Benefits Agreement."
BENEFIT PLANS FOLLOWING THE SPIN-OFF
Our Incentive Plans
On or prior to the date of the spin-off, our Board of Directors will adopt,
and ATI as our sole stockholder will approve, the following incentive
compensation plans.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Our long-term incentive plan is expected to provide for the grant of
various types of long-term incentive awards to selected employees, consistent
with the objectives and restrictions of the plan. Although these awards may
include non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options under the Internal
Revenue Code, stock appreciation rights, and restricted and unrestricted share
awards, it is expected that only stock options and restricted stock awards under
a stock acquisition and retention program will be granted under the plan
initially. A total of 2,650,000 shares of our common stock will be available for
issuance under our long-term incentive plan. The term of the plan is expected to
be ten years.
The plan will vest broad powers in the Personnel and Compensation Committee
of our Board of Directors to administer and interpret the plan. This power will
include the authority to select the persons to be granted awards, to determine
the terms, goals and conditions of awards, and to determine whether such goals
and conditions have been met.
While the precise number of shares is yet to be determined, it is
anticipated that we will grant options for up to 500,000 shares of our Common
Stock to our senior management following the spin-off in addition to those
options granted in connection with the conversion of options to purchase ATI
common stock under the Employee Benefits Agreement.
We also expect to establish a stock acquisition and retention program
("SARP") under our incentive plan with terms that are similar to the SARP
established by ATI. Under this program, each year, key executives will be given
the opportunity to purchase shares of our stock, or designate shares of our
stock previously acquired by them, with a value equal to their base salary at
the beginning of the year. Under the SARP, executives who purchase shares can
deliver a promissory note, payable to Teledyne Technologies, as payment of the
purchase price. Executives will receive an award of one restricted share of our
common stock for each two shares they purchase or designate. In general, the
restricted shares will vest only if the participant retains the shares purchased
or designated by the participant as subject to the SARP for a period of five
years.
Annual Incentive Plan
Our annual incentive plan is expected to give the Personnel and
Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors the discretion to determine the
aggregate amount of money to be used for awards based upon competitive
compensation practices and such measures of our performance as the Committee
selects from time to time. Individual awards will be determined annually by the
Personnel and Compensation Committee in accordance with performance goals
established by the Committee at the beginning of the year.
Deferred Compensation Plan
It is anticipated that we will implement a deferred compensation plan that
will allow certain of our executives to defer all or a portion of their annual
salary and annual incentive plan awards, as well as amounts due under certain of
our other compensation programs. A participant's deferred benefit will be
credited with earnings based on one or more hypothetical investments available
under the plan. The plan is not funded. We expect, however, to hold insurance
policies on the lives of participants in the plan, to the extent insurance is
reasonably available, to provide a possible source of cash for payments that
become due under the plan.
Pension and Other Plans
Pension Plans
Many of our employees will have been participants in various parts of the
ATI Pension
70
<PAGE> 75
Plan. On or prior to the date of the spin-off, we intend to adopt the Teledyne
Technologies Pension Plan on terms substantially similar to the parts of the ATI
Pension Plan applicable to all of our employees, both active and inactive at our
operations which perform government contract work and for our active employees
at our operations which do not perform government contract work. The annual
benefits payable under these parts of the pension plans to participating
salaried employees retiring at or after age 65 will be calculated under a
formula which takes into account the participant's compensation and years of
service. The Code limits the amounts payable to participants under a qualified
pension plan. We intend to adopt a Pension Equalization Plan which is designed
to restore benefits which would be payable under the pension plan provisions but
for the limits imposed by the Code, to the levels calculated pursuant to the
formulas contained in the pension plan provisions.
The following table illustrates the approximate annual pension that may
become payable to a Teledyne Technologies employee in the higher salary
classifications under our regular and supplemental pension plans.

(1) The estimated amounts assume retirement at age 65 (normal retirement age)
with a straight-life annuity without reduction for a survivor annuity or for
optional benefits. They are not subject to deduction for Social Security
benefits.
(2) For the period through December 31, 1994, for Teledyne employees who are in
the higher salary classifications, compensation for the purposes of the plan
was limited to an individual's base salary. Effective January 1, 1995, plan
compensation for those employees includes base salary and up to five annual
incentive compensation received on and after January 1, 1995.
(3) The maximum benefits payable under the pension provisions applicable to our
employees are reached after 30 years of credited service.
Savings Plan
We plan to establish a defined contribution 401(k) program for our
employees on terms substantially similar to the Teledyne, Inc. 401(k) Plan prior
to April 1, 2000 and transfer account balances of affected employees under the
Teledyne, Inc. 401(k) Plan directly to our new plan. Until we establish our new
plan, our employees will continue to participate in a part of the Teledyne, Inc.
401(k) Plan that is maintained for the benefit of our employees. After the
spin-off and until we establish our new savings plan, our part of the Teledyne,
Inc. 401(k) Plan will offer along with funds, three common stock funds as
investment alternatives: (i) our common stock fund, (ii) a Water Pik
Technologies, Inc. common stock fund and (iii) an ATI common stock fund. Our
plan participants will be able to increase their holdings in our stock fund.
They will not, however, be able to increase their holdings in the Water Pik
Technologies or ATI stock funds. To the extent that the plan fiduciaries have
not already done so, on December 31, 2002, all remaining investments in the
Water Pik
71
<PAGE> 76
Technologies and ATI stock funds under our part of the Teledyne, Inc. 401(k)
Plan or our new savings plan will be liquidated and the proceeds transferred to
the Teledyne Technologies common stock fund under the applicable plan. Similar
investment restrictions and automatic liquidations will apply to our stock fund
available under the ATI and Water Pik Technologies savings plans.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We expect to adopt an employee stock purchase plan similar to ATI's Stock
Advantage Plan, under which our employees will be permitted to purchase shares
of our common stock through payroll deductions supplemented by company
contributions.
Other Benefit Plans
It is expected that we will adopt a number of plans to provide certain
employee welfare benefits to our active employees as well as our retirees after
the spin-off, including medical, short and long-term disability, life insurance,
severance and other benefits, and our Board of Directors will reserve the right
to amend, suspend or terminate any of these welfare plans.

DESCRIPTION OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK
Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation ("Certificate") provides that our
authorized capital consists of (i) 125,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par
value, of which (based on the number of shares of ATI common stock outstanding
as of September 30, 1999) 27,008,553 shares of our common stock will be issued
to stockholders of ATI in the spin-off, and (ii) 15,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, par value $.01 per share, of which 1,250,000 shares have been designated
as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock for issuance in connection with
the exercise of Teledyne Technologies Rights. See "-- Rights Plan."
COMMON STOCK
Each share of our common stock will entitle its holder of record to one
vote for the election of directors and all other matters to be voted on by the
stockholders. Holders of our common stock will not have cumulative voting
rights. As a result, the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock
voting for the election of directors may elect all nominees standing for
election as our directors.
Subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock, holders of our common
stock will be entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared
from time to time by our Board of Directors in its discretion from funds legally
available for that use. Subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock,
holders of our common stock will be entitled to share on a pro rata basis in any
distribution to stockholders upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. No
holder of our common stock will have any preemptive right to subscribe for any
of our stock or other security.
PREFERRED STOCK
Our Board of Directors, without further action by the stockholders, may
from time to time authorize the issuance of shares of our preferred stock in one
or more series and, within certain limitations, fix the powers, preferences and
rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof and the
number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series.
Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of our outstanding preferred stock
would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of dividends on our
common stock. Holders of our preferred stock would normally be entitled to
receive a preference payment in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or
winding up before any payment is made to the holders of our common stock.
Under certain circumstances, the issuance of our preferred stock may render
more difficult or tend to discourage our change in control. Although we
currently have no plans to issue shares of our preferred stock, our Board of
Directors, without stockholder approval, may issue our preferred stock with
voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the rights of holders
of shares of our common stock. For a description of the terms of our Series A
Junior Participating Preferred Stock. See "-- Rights Plan."
RIGHTS PLAN
Our Board of Directors has, subject to completion of the spin-off, declared
a dividend of one preferred share purchase Right for each outstanding share of
our common stock. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us
one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock
(the "Preferred Shares") of Teledyne Technologies at a price of $ per one
one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the "Purchase Price"), subject to
adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights
Agreement between us and ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C., as Rights
Agent.
Until the earlier to occur of:
- a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated
persons (an "Acquiring Person"), has acquired beneficial ownership of 15%
or more of our outstanding shares of common stock; or
75
<PAGE> 80
- 10 business days (or such later date as may be determined by our board of
directors) following the commencement of, or announcement of an intention
to make, a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would
result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of 15% or more of
our outstanding common stock (the earlier of such dates being the
"Distribution Date"), the Rights will be evidenced by the common stock
certificate with a copy of the Summary of Rights attached to it.
The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Distribution Date (or earlier
redemption or expiration of the Rights), the Rights will be transferred with and
only with our common stock. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption
or expiration of the Rights), new certificates of our common stock issued upon
transfer or new issuance of our common stock will contain a notation
incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference.
Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the
Rights), the surrender for transfer of any certificates for our common stock,
even without such notation or a copy of the Summary of Rights being attached
thereto, will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with our
common stock represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable following
the Distribution Date, separate Rights Certificates will be mailed to holders of
record of our common stock as of the close of business on the Distribution Date
and such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the Rights.
The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The final
expiration date for the Rights will occur at the close of business on the tenth
anniversary of the date of the Rights Agreement, unless this date is extended or
unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by us, in each case, as
described below.
The Purchase Price payable, and the number of Preferred Shares or other
securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to
adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution:
- in the event of a stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or
reclassification of, the Preferred Shares;
- upon the grant to holders of the Preferred Shares of certain rights or
warrants to subscribe for or purchase Preferred Shares at a price, or
securities convertible into Preferred Shares with a conversion price,
less than the then-current market price of the Preferred Shares; or
- upon the distribution to holders of the Preferred Shares of evidence of
indebtedness or assets (excluding regular periodic cash dividends paid
out of earnings or retained earnings or dividends payable in Preferred
Shares) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those referred
to above).
The number of outstanding Rights and the number of one one-hundredths of a
Preferred Share issuable upon exercise of each Right are also subject to
adjustment in the event of a stock split of our common stock or a stock dividend
on our common stock payable in shares of our common stock or subdivisions,
consolidations or combinations of our common stock occurring, in any such case,
prior to the Distribution Date.
Preferred Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be
redeemable. Each Preferred Share will be entitled to a minimum preferential
quarterly dividend payment of $1.00 per share but will be entitled to an
aggregate dividend of 100 times the dividend declared per share of our common
stock. If we are liquidated, the holders of the Preferred Shares will be
entitled to a minimum preferential liquidation payment of $100 per share but
will be entitled to an aggregate payment of 100 times the payment made per share
of our common stock. Each Preferred Share will have 100 votes, voting together
with our common stock. Finally, if we engage in a merger, consolidation, or any
other transaction in which shares of our common stock are exchanged, each
Preferred Share will be entitled to receive 100 times the amount received
76
<PAGE> 81
per share of our common stock. These rights are protected by customary
antidilution provisions.
The dividend, liquidation and voting rights attendant to one one-hundredth
of a Preferred Share purchasable upon exercise of each Right are designed to be
the approximate economic equivalent of one share of our common stock.
In the event that we are acquired in a merger or other business combination
transaction or 50% or more of our consolidated assets or earning power are sold
after a person or group has become an Acquiring Person, proper provision will be
made so that each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive,
upon the exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that
number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of
such transaction will have a market value of two times the exercise price of the
Right. If any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an
Acquiring Person, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right,
other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person (which will
thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise
that number of shares of our common stock having a market value of two times the
exercise price of the Right.
At any time after any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person and prior
to the acquisition by such person or group of 50% or more of the outstanding
shares of our common stock, our board of directors may exchange the Rights
(other than Rights owned by such person or group which will have become void),
in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of our common stock, or
one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share, per Right.
With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be
required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least 1% in
such Purchase Price. No fractional Preferred Shares will be issued (other than
fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred
Share, which may, at our election, be evidenced by depository receipts) and, in
lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will be made based on the market price of
the Preferred Shares on the last trading day prior to the date of exercise.
At any time prior to the acquisition by a person or group of affiliated or
associated persons of beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding
shares of our common stock, our Board of Directors may redeem the Rights in
whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right. The redemption of the
Rights may be made effective at such time on such basis with such conditions as
our the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. Immediately
upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will
terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the
redemption price.
The terms of the Rights may be amended by our Board of Directors without
the consent of the holders of the Rights, except that from and after such time
as any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring
Person, no such amendment may adversely affect the interests of the holders of
the Rights.
Until a Right is exercised, the holder of the Right will have no rights as
our stockholder, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive
dividends.
CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF OUR GOVERNING DOCUMENTS
The following is a description of certain provisions of our Certificate and
Bylaws. The description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
texts of the Certificate and Bylaws. Certain provisions of our Certificate and
Bylaws could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to
acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of
us, without the approval of our Board of Directors.
Charter Provisions Affecting Control and Other Transactions. Our
Certificate requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds
of the outstanding shares of our common stock to approve certain fundamental
changes such as a merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all of our
assets, dissolution, certain
77
<PAGE> 82
purchases by us or one of our subsidiaries of shares of our common stock or
other assets from a "significant shareholder," any merger of a "significant
shareholder" into us or one of our subsidiaries, or any reclassification or
recapitalization of us consummated within five years after a "significant
shareholder" becomes such, if the result of such reclassification or
recapitalization is to reduce the number of outstanding shares of our common
stock or convert any such shares into cash or other securities. This
supermajority voting requirement is not applicable if the fundamental change has
been approved at a meeting of our board of directors by the vote of more than
two-thirds of the incumbent directors. A "significant shareholder" is defined as
any person who owns beneficially a number of shares of our common stock that is
greater than 15% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, and any and all
associates and affiliates of such person.
Classification of Directors. Our Certificate provides that our Board of
Directors will consist of three classes of directors. The initial members of our
Board of Directors will be divided into three classes to serve as follows: the
Class I Directors will initially hold office for a term to expire at the first
annual meeting of stockholders after their initial election; the Class II
Directors will initially hold office for a term to expire at the second annual
meeting of stockholders after their initial election; and the Class III
Directors will initially hold office for a term to expire at the third annual
meeting of stockholders after their initial election. At each annual meeting of
our stockholders, only the election of directors of the class whose term is
expiring will be voted upon, and upon election each director will serve a
three-year term. See "Management -- Directors."
Right to Call a Special Meeting. Our Certificate provides that special
meetings of the stockholders may only be called by the Chairman of our Board of
Directors or the Chief Executive Officer or by our Board of Directors pursuant
to a resolution passed by a majority of the directors then in office.
Accordingly, our stockholders will not have the right to call a special meeting
of the stockholders. Our Certificate further provides that only such business
will be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been
brought before the meeting pursuant to our notice of the special meeting.
Nominations of persons for election to our Board of Directors may be made
at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected
pursuant to our notice of meeting (i) by or at the direction of our board of
directors or (ii) by any stockholder of record at the time of the giving of
notice of such meeting. Nominations by a stockholder of persons for election to
our Board of Directors may be made if the stockholder's notice is delivered to
our Secretary not earlier than the 90th day prior to the special meeting and not
later than the 75th day prior to the special meeting or the 10th day following
the day on which a public announcement is first made of the special meeting and
of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at the meeting.
Procedures to Bring Business Before a Meeting; No Action by Consent. Our
Certificate provides that in order for nominations or other business to be
properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must
give timely notice thereof in writing to our Secretary. To be timely, a
stockholder's notice must be delivered to our Secretary not less than 60 days
nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's
annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event the date of the annual
meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from
the anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so
delivered not earlier than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting and not
later than the 60th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following
the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.
Our Certificate also provides that any action required to be taken by our
stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of our
stockholders and may not be effected by the written consent of our stockholders.
78
<PAGE> 83
Fiduciary Duties of Directors. Our Certificate provides that our directors
may take into account the effects of their actions on our employees, suppliers,
distributors and customers and the effect upon communities in which our offices
or facilities are located or any other factors considered pertinent.
As permitted by the DGCL, our Certificate includes a provision eliminating
the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except for
liability:
- for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or
its stockholders;
- for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
- for unlawful payment of a dividend or an unlawful stock purchase or
redemption, and
- for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal
benefit.
Our Certificate further provides that, if the DGCL is amended to authorize
corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of
directors, then the liability of our directors shall be eliminated or limited to
the fullest extent so permitted. Our Certificate also specifies that no
amendment to or repeal of the provision shall apply to or have any effect on the
liability or alleged liability of any of our directors for or with respect to
any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to the amendment or
repeal.
Charter Amendments. Our Certificate provides that the affirmative vote of
the holders of at least 75% of the combined voting power of the outstanding
shares of our capital stock is required to amend or rescind, or adopt any
provision inconsistent with the purpose or intent of the provisions of our
Certificate relating to the adoption, amendment and repeal of our Bylaws,
limitations of certain liabilities of directors, actions of stockholders,
classification of directors, certain factors permitted to be considered by the
directors, approval of certain fundamental changes, and amendments to our
Certificate.
Bylaw Provisions Regarding ATI Directors. Our Bylaws contain provisions
designed to ensure that at least a majority of our directors are also directors
of ATI until the third annual meeting of our stockholders held after the
spin-off. The Bylaws also provide that no quorum of the board will be deemed
present unless at least a majority of the directors present are also members of
the Board of Directors of ATI.
Bylaw Amendments. Our Certificate authorizes our Board of Directors to
adopt, amend or repeal our Bylaws. Our Certificate also provides that our
stockholders may not adopt, amend or repeal our Bylaws other than by the same
affirmative vote that is required to amend certain provisions of our Certificate
See "-- Charter Amendments")
ANTI-TAKEOVER LEGISLATION
Since neither our Certificate nor our Bylaws contain a provision expressly
electing not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, we are subject to this
statutory anti-takeover provision. Section 203 provides that any person who
acquires 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock (thereby becoming an
"interested stockholder") may not engage in a "business combination" with the
corporation for a period of three years following the time the person became an
interested stockholder, unless:
- the board of directors of the corporation approved, prior to such time,
either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the
person becoming an interested stockholder;
- upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in that person
becoming an interested stockholder, that person owns at least 85% of the
corporation's voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction
commenced (excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and
officers of that corporation and shares owned by
79
<PAGE> 84
employee stock plans in which participants do not have the right to
determine confidentially whether shares will be tendered in a tender or
exchange offer); or
- the business combination is approved by the board of directors and
authorized by the affirmative vote (at an annual or special meeting and
not by written consent) of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of
voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.
In determining whether a stockholder is the "owner" of 15% or more of a
corporation's voting stock for purposes of Section 203, ownership is defined to
include the right, directly or indirectly, to acquire stock or to control the
voting or disposition of stock. A "business combination" is defined to include:
- mergers or consolidations of a corporation with an interested
stockholder;
- sales or other dispositions of ten percent or more of the assets of a
corporation with or to an interested stockholder;
- certain transactions resulting in the issuance or transfer to an
interested stockholder of any stock of a corporation or its subsidiaries;
- certain transactions which would result in increasing the proportionate
share of the stock of a corporation or its subsidiaries owned by an
interested stockholder, and
- receipt by an interested stockholder of the benefit (except
proportionately as a stockholder) of any loans, advances, guarantees,
pledges or other financial benefits from, by or to a corporation or any
of its majority-owned subsidiaries.
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock will be ChaseMellon

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
ELIMINATION OF LIABILITY
As permitted by the DGCL, our Certificate eliminates, subject to certain
statutory limitations, the liability of directors to Teledyne Technologies or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty, except for
liability
- for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or
its stockholders,
- for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
- under Section 174 of the DGCL, or
- for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Under Section 145 of the DGCL, a corporation has the power to indemnify
directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and, subject to
certain limitations, against certain costs and expenses, including attorney's
fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which
any of them is a party by reason of his or her being a director or officer of
the corporation if it is determined that he or she acted in accordance with the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in such statutory provision.
Our Certificate provides that we will indemnify any person who was or is a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or
was one of our directors or officers, or is or was serving at our request as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another entity, against certain
liabilities, costs and expenses.
We are also authorized to maintain, and do maintain, insurance on behalf of
any person who is or was one of our directors or officers, or is or was serving
at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity
against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person
in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not
we would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under
the DGCL.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Teledyne
Technologies Incorporated as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related
combined statements of income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Teledyne
Technologies Incorporated at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the combined
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. ALLEGHENY TELEDYNE INCORPORATED'S SPIN-OFF OF TELEDYNE TECHNOLOGIES
INCORPORATED
In 1999, Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated ("Allegheny Teledyne") announced
that it would pursue a course of action that would result in a transformation of
Allegheny Teledyne, which was expected to include the spin-off of certain of the
businesses of its Aerospace and Electronics segment to Allegheny Teledyne
stockholders as an independent, publicly-traded company (the "spin-off"). In
August 1999, Allegheny Teledyne received a favorable ruling from the Internal
Revenue Service that the proposed spin-off would be treated as a tax-free
distribution for federal income tax purposes. In September 1999, Allegheny
Teledyne's Board of Directors approved the various transactions pertaining to
the spin-off, including the transfer of certain of the businesses of Allegheny
Teledyne's Aerospace and Electronics segment to a new corporation, Teledyne
Technologies Incorporated ("Teledyne Technologies" or the "Company"),
immediately prior to the spin-off, and delegated to its Executive Committee the
authority to set the record date and distribution date for the spin-off.
Immediately following the spin-off, Allegheny Teledyne will no longer have a
financial investment in Teledyne Technologies.
Teledyne Technologies consists of the operations of the Teledyne Electronic
Technologies and the Teledyne Brown Engineering divisions, both with operations
in the United States and United Kingdom, and the Teledyne Continental Motors and
the Teledyne Cast Parts divisions, both with operations in the United States.
Prior to the spin-off, these operations were divisions of wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Allegheny Teledyne.
A five-year $200,000,000 revolving credit facility will be established by
Allegheny Teledyne, and $100,000,000 of borrowings under the facility will be
used by Allegheny Teledyne prior to the spin-off to repay certain of Allegheny
Teledyne's debt obligations. Teledyne Technologies will assume this credit
facility, including the repayment obligations for Allegheny Teledyne's
$100,000,000 of borrowings, in connection with the spin-off. Following the
spin-off, Teledyne Technologies will have $100,000,000 of borrowing availability
remaining. In addition, prior to and in connection with the spin-off, Teledyne
Technologies and Allegheny Teledyne will enter into agreements providing for the
separation of the companies and governing various relationships for separating
employee benefits and tax obligations, indemnification and transition services.
The financial statements of Teledyne Technologies include the combined
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the businesses
described above. Allegheny Teledyne's historical cost basis of assets and
liabilities has been reflected in the Teledyne Technologies financial
statements. The financial information in these financial statements is not
necessarily indicative of results of operations, financial position and cash
flows that would have occurred if Teledyne Technologies had been a separate
stand-alone entity during the periods presented or of future results. The
combined financial statements included herein do not reflect any changes that
may occur in the capitalization and operations of Teledyne Technologies as a
result of, or after, the spin-off.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF COMBINATION
The combined financial statements of Teledyne Technologies include the
accounts of the businesses distributed by Allegheny Teledyne and its
subsidiaries as described in Note 1. Significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates are
reasonable.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Commercial sales and revenue from U.S. Government fixed-price type
contracts are generally recorded as deliveries are made or as services are
rendered. Occasionally, for certain fixed-price type contracts that require
substantial performance over a long time period (one or more years) before
deliveries begin, sales may be recorded based upon attainment of scheduled
performance milestones which could be time, event or expense driven. In these
few instances, invoices are submitted to the customer under a contractual
agreement and payments are made by the customer. As of December 31, 1998, the
average length of our long-term contracts was approximately two years. Sales
under cost-reimbursement contracts are recorded as costs are incurred and fees
are earned.
Since certain contracts extend over a long period of time, all revisions in
cost and funding estimates during the progress of work have the effect of
adjusting the current period earnings on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the
current contract estimate indicates a loss, provision is made for the total
anticipated loss.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Company-funded research and development costs ($24,728,000 in 1998,
$28,116,000 in 1997 and $28,933,000 in 1996), which include bid and proposal
costs, are expensed as incurred. Costs related to customer-funded research and
development contracts ($150,254,000 in 1998, $160,675,000 in 1997 and
$173,693,000 in 1996) are charged to costs and expenses as the related sales are
recorded. A portion of the costs incurred for Company-funded research and
development is recoverable through overhead cost allowances on government
contracts.
INCOME TAXES
Provision for income taxes includes deferred taxes resulting from temporary
differences in income for financial and tax purposes using the liability method.
Such temporary differences result primarily from differences in the carrying
value of assets and liabilities.
NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
The average number of shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock used in
the computation of basic net income per common share was 28,107,241, 28,085,823
and 27,317,318 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, based on a
F-8
<PAGE> 94
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
distribution ratio of one share of Teledyne Technologies common stock for every
seven shares of Allegheny Teledyne common stock. The average number of shares of
Teledyne Technologies common stock used in the computation of diluted net income
per common share was 28,133,879, 28,120,380 and 27,341,594 for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. A distribution ratio of one
share of Teledyne Technologies common stock for every seven shares of Allegheny
Teledyne common stock was used to adjust the stock options. The actual stock
option adjustment will be based upon the relation of the market price of
Allegheny Teledyne common stock prior to the spin-off to the market price of
Teledyne Technologies after the spin-off and therefore cannot be determined at
the present time.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Receivables are presented net of a reserve for doubtful accounts of
$2,890,000 at December 31, 1998 and $3,205,000 at December 31, 1997. Expense
recorded for the reserve for doubtful accounts was $1,432,000, $1,257,000 and
$1,199,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
Write-offs of doubtful accounts were $1,747,000, $76,000 and $1,092,000 for the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company markets
its products and services principally throughout the United States, Europe,
Japan and Canada to commercial customers and agencies of, and prime contractors
to, the U.S. Government. Trade credit is extended based upon evaluations of each
customer's ability to perform its obligations, which are updated periodically.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out; first-in,
first-out; and average cost methods) or market, less progress payments. Costs
include direct material, direct labor and applicable manufacturing and
engineering overhead, and other direct costs.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. The method of
depreciation adopted for all property placed into service after July 1, 1996 is
the straight-line method. For buildings and equipment acquired prior to July 1,
1996, depreciation is computed using a combination of accelerated and
straight-line methods. The Company believes the straight-line method more
appropriately reflects its financial results by better allocating costs of new
property over the useful lives of these assets. The effect of this change on net
income in 1996 was not material.
COST IN EXCESS OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED
Cost in excess of net assets acquired related to businesses purchased after
November 1970 is being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods not
exceeding 10 years. Goodwill amortization expense was $582,000, $510,000 and
$125,000 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
OTHER LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The carrying value of long-lived assets is periodically evaluated in
relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the
underlying businesses. Adjustments are made if the sum of expected future net
cash flows is less than book value.
F-9
<PAGE> 95
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In 1997, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $1,800,000 in
general and administrative expenses primarily to write-off of its investment in
a limited liability corporation that was determined to have no value. This
determination was made as a result of programs that were discontinued in the
Systems Engineering Solutions business segment in 1997.
ENVIRONMENTAL
Costs that mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination or extend
the life, increase the capacity or improve the safety or efficiency of property
utilized in current operations are capitalized. Other costs that relate to
current operations or an existing condition caused by past operations are
expensed. Environmental liabilities are recorded when the Company's liability is
probable and the costs are reasonably estimable, but generally not later than
the completion of the feasibility study or the Company's recommendation of a
remedy or commitment to an appropriate plan of action. The accruals are reviewed
periodically and, as investigations and remediations proceed, adjustments are
made as necessary. Accruals for losses from environmental remediation
obligations do not consider the effects of inflation, and anticipated
expenditures are not discounted to their present value. The accruals are not
reduced by possible recoveries from insurance carriers or other third parties,
but do reflect anticipated allocations among potentially responsible parties at
federal Superfund sites or similar state-managed sites and an assessment of the
likelihood that such parties will fulfill their obligations at such sites. The
measurement of environmental liabilities by the Company is based on currently
available facts, present laws and regulations, and current technology. Such
estimates take into consideration the Company's prior experience in site
investigation and remediation, the data concerning cleanup costs available from
other companies and regulatory authorities, and the professional judgment of the
Company's environmental experts in consultation with outside environmental
specialists, when necessary.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The Company's foreign entities' accounts are measured using local currency
as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the
exchange rate in effect at year-end. Revenues and expenses are translated at the
rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising
from differences in exchange rates from period to period are included in the
cumulative foreign currency translation account in stockholder's equity.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" was issued in June 1998. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. In June 1999, FASB Statement No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities: Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133" was issued. This statement delays the effective date of
Statement No. 133 to all fiscal quarters beginning after June 15, 2000. The
Company is presently evaluating the effect of adopting these statements.

materially from current cost.
During 1998, 1997 and 1996, inventory usage resulted in liquidations of

lower costs prevailing in prior years as compared with the cost of current
purchases. The effect of these last-in, first-out

and $2,464,000 in 1996.
Inventories, before progress payments, related to long-term contracts were
$2,035,000 and $2,292,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Progress

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
Allegheny Teledyne sponsors an incentive plan that provides for stock
option awards to officers and key employees. Teledyne Technologies has officers
and key employees that have participated in this plan. Teledyne Technologies
accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with APB Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations. Under
APB Opinion 25, no compensation expense is recognized because the exercise price
of the Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the
underlying stock at the date of the grant.
If compensation cost for these options had been determined using the
fair-value method prescribed by FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-based Compensation," net income would have been reduced by $673,000,
$154,000, and $131,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Under FASB Statement No. 123, the fair value of each option grant
is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-

awards will be specific to Teledyne Technologies and therefore may not be
comparable to the Allegheny Teledyne assumptions used.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In connection with the spin-off of Teledyne Technologies from Allegheny
Teledyne, outstanding stock options held by Teledyne Technologies employees will
be converted into options to purchase Teledyne Technologies common stock. The
number of shares and the exercise price of each Allegheny Teledyne option that
is converted to a Teledyne Technologies option will be converted based upon a
formula designed to preserve the inherent economic value, vesting and term
provisions of such Allegheny Teledyne options as of the distribution date. The
exchange ratio and fair market value of the Teledyne Technologies common stock,
upon active trading, will also impact the number of options issued to Teledyne
Technologies employees. The ultimate number and exercise price of the Teledyne
Technologies stock options to be issued, subject to the above calculation,
cannot yet be determined.
Teledyne Technologies intends to establish its own long-term incentive plan
which will provide its Board of Directors the flexibility to grant restricted
stock, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights and non-qualified
stock options to officers and employees of Teledyne Technologies.

$116,755,000 and $119,937,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
Teledyne Technologies participates in Allegheny Teledyne's centralized cash
management system. Cash receipts in excess of cash requirements are transferred
to Allegheny Teledyne. These transactions with Allegheny Teledyne are
non-interest bearing and the net advances fluctuate on a daily basis.
Corporate general and administrative expenses represent allocations for
expenses incurred by Allegheny Teledyne on the Company's behalf including costs
for finance, legal, tax and human resources functions. Amounts above were
allocated based on net sales, which management believes to be reasonable.
Teledyne Technologies participates in the defined
F-14
<PAGE> 100
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
benefit pension plan sponsored by Allegheny Teledyne. The expense for the plan
was allocated to Teledyne Technologies based upon actuarially-determined amounts
for the pension obligation and assets intended to be transferred from Allegheny
Teledyne to Teledyne Technologies at the time of the spin-off. Teledyne
Technologies also participates in casualty, medical and life insurance programs
sponsored by Allegheny Teledyne. Insurance expense was allocated to Teledyne
Technologies based upon actual losses incurred plus a share of pooled
catastrophic losses under the Allegheny Teledyne self-insurance program. In the
opinion of management, the allocations of these expenses are reasonable. The
expenses allocated for these services and programs are not necessarily
indicative of the expenses that would have been incurred if Teledyne
Technologies had been a separate, independent entity and had managed these
functions. Had Teledyne Technologies been a separate standalone company and
managed these functions during the periods presented, management estimates that
corporate general and administrative expenses would have been approximately
$15,000,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. The
Company determined the additional corporate expenses for the periods presented
by estimating the number, seniority and compensation levels of additional
employees that would likely be required to fully carry out the finance, legal,
tax, human resources, investor and public relations and other functions
associated with being a stand alone public company. In addition, we included
estimates of various corporate and related administrative expenses that can be
expected to be incurred as a stand alone public company, such as board of
directors fees and expenses and independent accounting and legal fees and
expenses. In making these estimates, the Company also examined expenses
historically incurred by Allegheny Teledyne for these personnel and expenses.
The Company may incur additional general and administrative expenses, pension
and insurance costs as a result of operating independently of Allegheny
Teledyne.
In addition, prior to and in connection with the spin-off, Teledyne
Technologies and Allegheny Teledyne will enter into agreements providing for the
separation of the companies and governing various relationships for separating
employee benefits and tax obligations, indemnification and transition services.
Net sales include $1,074,000, $293,000 and $1,548,000 of sales to other
Allegheny Teledyne subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. There was a receivable of $532,000 at December 31, 1998 and
$220,000 at December 31, 1997 from other Allegheny Teledyne subsidiaries.

NOTE 9. PENSION PLANS
Certain Teledyne Technologies employees participate in the noncontributory
defined benefit plan sponsored by Allegheny Teledyne. Benefits under the defined
benefit plan are generally based on years of service and/or final average pay.
Allegheny Teledyne funds the pension plan in accordance with the requirements of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the
Internal Revenue Code.
Net periodic pension income or expense allocated to Teledyne Technologies
was $1,719,000 income, $722,000 expense and $965,000 income in the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
It is intended that as of the spin-off date, Teledyne Technologies will
assume the existing defined benefit plan obligations for all of Teledyne
Technologies' employees, both active and inactive, at its companies that perform
government contract work and for Teledyne Technologies' active employees at its
companies that do not perform government contract work. Allegheny Teledyne will
transfer sufficient pension assets to fund the new Teledyne Technologies defined
benefit pension plan such that at the time of the transfer, pension assets will
exceed pension obligations by approximately $50,000,000. As a result, it is
anticipated that Teledyne Technologies will not have to make contributions to
the pension plan for the foreseeable future. Additionally, in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code regulations, the Company would be able to recover from the
excess pension assets amounts paid for retiree medical expenses.
Teledyne Technologies also participates in a defined contribution plan
sponsored by Allegheny Teledyne maintained for substantially all of its
employees. The costs associated with this plan were $3,323,000, $1,209,000 and
$1,266,000 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. It is intended that Teledyne
Technologies will establish its own defined contribution plan subsequent to the
distribution.

<PAGE> 106
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
$9,017,000 in 1999, $5,393,000 in 2000, $5,051,000 in 2001, $4,812,000 in 2002,
$2,418,000 in 2003 and $6,869,000 thereafter.
The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations which require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the
release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present
operations, including sites at which the Company has been identified as a
potentially responsible party under the federal Superfund laws and comparable
state laws. The Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party
at approximately 17 such sites, excluding those at which the Company believes it
has no future liability. The Company recognized income of $469,000 in 1998 and
$708,000 in 1996 as a result of favorable negotiations with other potentially
responsible parties related to their level of financial responsibility for
environmental remediation costs. In 1997, the Company recognized expense of
$765,000 related to changes in environmental obligations.
In accordance with the Company's accounting policy disclosed in Note 2,
environmental liabilities are recorded when the Company's liability is probable
and the costs are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however, investigations
are not yet at a stage where the Company has been able to determine whether it
is liable or, if liability is probable, to reasonably estimate the loss or range
of loss, or certain components thereof. Estimates of the Company's liability are
further subject to uncertainties regarding the nature and extent of site
contamination, the range of remediation alternatives available, evolving
remediation standards, imprecise engineering evaluations and estimates of
appropriate cleanup technology, methodology and cost, the extent of corrective
actions that may be required, and the number and financial condition of other
potentially responsible parties, as well as the extent of their responsibility
for the remediation. Accordingly, as investigation and remediation of these
sites proceeds, it is likely that adjustments in the Company's accruals will be
necessary to reflect new information. The amounts of any such adjustments could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations in a given
period, but the amounts, and the possible range of loss in excess of the amounts
accrued, are not reasonably estimable. Based on currently available information,
however, management does not believe that future environmental costs in excess
of those accrued with respect to sites with which the Company has been
identified are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or liquidity. However, there can be no assurance that
additional future developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating
to environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.
At December 31, 1998, the Company's reserves for environmental remediation
obligations totaled approximately $1,600,000, of which approximately $823,000
were included in other current liabilities. The reserve includes estimated
probable future costs of $1,022,000 for federal Superfund and comparable
state-managed sites; $359,000 for formerly owned or operated sites for which the
Company has remediation or indemnification obligations; and $219,000 for sites
utilized by the Company in its ongoing operations. The Company is evaluating
whether it may be able to recover a portion of future costs for environmental
liabilities from its insurance carriers and from third parties other than
participating potentially responsible parties.
The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors that vary by
site, including the nature and extent of contamination, the number of
potentially responsible parties, the timing of regulatory approvals, the
complexity of the investigation and remediation, and the
F-21
<PAGE> 107
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
standards for remediation. The Company expects that it will expend present
accruals over many years, and will complete remediation of all sites with which
it has been identified in up to thirty years.
Various claims (whether based on U.S. Government or Company audits and
investigations or otherwise) have been or may be asserted against the Company
related to its U.S. Government contract work, including claims based on business
practices and cost classifications and actions under the False Claims Act.
Although such claims are generally resolved by detailed fact-finding and
negotiation, on those occasions when they are not so resolved, civil or criminal
legal or administrative proceedings may ensue. Depending on the circumstances
and the outcome, such proceedings could result in fines, penalties, compensatory
and treble damages or the cancellation or suspension of payments under one or
more U.S. Government contracts. Under government regulations, a company, or one
or more of its operating divisions or units, can also be suspended or debarred
from government contracts based on the results of investigations. However,
although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty,
management does not believe there is any audit, review or investigation
currently pending against the Company of which management is aware that is
likely to result in suspension or debarment of the Company, or that is otherwise
likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of
these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations for that period.
The Company learns from time to time that it has been named as a defendant
in civil actions filed under seal pursuant to the False Claims Act. Generally,
since such cases are under seal, the Company does not in all cases possess
sufficient information to determine whether the Company could sustain a material
loss in connection with such cases, or to reasonably estimate the amount of any
loss attributable to such cases.
In connection with the spin-off, Allegheny Teledyne received a tax ruling
from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the spin-off will be tax-free to
Allegheny Teledyne and to Allegheny Teledyne's stockholders. The continuing
validity of the Internal Revenue Service tax ruling is subject to certain
factual representations and assumptions, including completion of a public
offering of the Company's common stock within one year following the spin-off
and use of the anticipated gross proceeds of approximately $125 million (less
associated costs) for research and development and related capital projects, for
the further development of the Company's manufacturing capabilities and for
acquisitions and/or joint ventures. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution
Agreement that Teledyne Technologies will sign prior to the spin-off, the
Company will agree with Allegheny Teledyne to undertake such a public offering.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement between Allegheny Teledyne
and Teledyne Technologies provides that the Company will indemnify Allegheny
Teledyne and its agents and representatives for taxes imposed on, and other
amounts paid by, them or ATI's stockholders if the Company takes actions or
fails to take actions (such as completing the public offering) that result in
the spin-off not qualifying as a tax-free distribution. If the Company were
required to so indemnify Allegheny Teledyne, such an obligation could have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and
cash flow and the amount the Company could be required to pay could exceed its
net worth by a substantial amount.

A number of other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be
asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its business, including
those pertaining to product liability, patent infringement, commercial,
employment and employee benefits. While the outcome of litigation cannot be
predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may
be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the
disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the
resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for that period.

In the 1998 third quarter, results reflect the favorable impact of an
adjustment to product liability self-insurance reserves as a result of favorable
experience.
In the 1997 second quarter, nonrecurring expenses, primarily research and
development-related expenses for electronic components for aircraft, resulted in
declines in operating profit for Teledyne Controls' data acquisition and
communication products.

NOTES TO INTERIM COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These interim combined financial statements include the accounts of
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated and its subsidiaries ("Teledyne Technologies"
or the "Company"). These unaudited combined financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. These unaudited combined financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the annual combined historical financial
statements and notes thereto included in this Information Statement. The results
of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for a full year.
The average number of shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock used in
the computation of basic net income per common share was 27,481,371 and
28,126,024 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively,
based on a distribution ratio of one share of Teledyne Technologies common stock
for every seven shares of Allegheny Teledyne common stock. The average number of
shares of Teledyne Technologies common stock used in the computation of diluted
net income per common share was 27,506,953 and 28,154,010 for the nine months
ended September 30 1999 and 1998, respectively. A distribution ratio of one
share of Teledyne Technologies common stock for every seven shares of Allegheny
Teledyne common stock was used to adjust the stock options. The actual stock
option adjustment will be based upon the relation of the market price of
Allegheny Teledyne common stock prior to the spin-off to the market price of
Teledyne Technologies after the spin-off and therefore cannot be determined at
the present time.
FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" was issued in June 1998. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. In June 1999, FASB Statement No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities: Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133" was issued. This statement delays the effective date of
Statement No. 133 to all fiscal quarters beginning after June 15, 2000. The
Company is presently evaluating the effect of adopting these statements.

NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations which require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the
release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present
operations, including sites at which the Company has been identified as a
potentially responsible party under the federal Superfund laws and comparable
state laws. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and
remediation of a number of sites under these laws. The Company recognized
expense related
F-29
<PAGE> 115
NOTES TO INTERIM COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
to changes in environmental obligations of $60,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and income of $681,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998.
In accordance with the Company's accounting policy, environmental
liabilities are recorded when the Company's liability is probable and the costs
are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however, investigations are not yet at
a stage where the Company has been able to determine whether it is liable or, if
liability is probable, to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss, or
certain components thereof. Estimates of the Company's liability are further
subject to uncertainties regarding the nature and extent of site contamination,
the range of remediation alternatives available, evolving remediation standards,
imprecise engineering evaluations and estimates of appropriate cleanup
technology, methodology and cost, the extent of corrective actions that may be
required, and the number and financial condition of other potentially
responsible parties, as well as the extent of their responsibility for the
remediation. Accordingly, as investigation and remediation of these sites
proceeds, it is likely that adjustments in the Company's accruals will be
necessary to reflect new information. The amounts of any such adjustments could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations in a given
period, but the amounts, and the possible range of loss in excess of the amounts
accrued, are not reasonably estimable. Based on currently available information,
however, management does not believe that future environmental costs in excess
of those accrued with respect to sites with which the Company has been
identified are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or liquidity. However, there can be no assurance that
additional future developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating
to environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.
At September 30, 1999, the Company's reserves for environmental remediation
obligations totaled approximately $1,334,000, of which approximately $922,100
were included in other current liabilities. The reserve includes estimated
probable future costs of $782,400 for federal Superfund and comparable
state-managed sites; $292,000 for formerly owned or operated sites for which the
Company has remediation or indemnification obligations; and $259,600 for sites
utilized by the Company in its ongoing operations. The Company is evaluating
whether it may be able to recover a portion of future costs for environmental
liabilities from its insurance carriers and from third parties other than
participating potentially responsible parties.
The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors that vary by
site, including the nature and extent of contamination, the number of
potentially responsible parties, the timing of regulatory approvals, the
complexity of the investigation and remediation, and the standards for
remediation. The Company expects that it will expend present accruals over many
years, and will complete remediation of all sites with which it has been
identified in up to thirty years.
Various claims (whether based on U.S. Government or Company audits and
investigations or otherwise) have been or may be asserted against the Company
related to its U.S. Government contract work, including claims based on business
practices and cost classifications and actions under the False Claims Act.
Although such claims are generally resolved by detailed fact-finding and
negotiation, on those occasions when they are not so resolved, civil or criminal
legal or administrative proceedings may ensue. Depending on the circumstances
and the outcome, such proceedings could result in fines, penalties, compensatory
and treble damages or the cancellation or suspension of payments under one or
more
F-30
<PAGE> 116
NOTES TO INTERIM COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
U.S. Government contracts. Under government regulations, a company, or one or
more of its operating divisions or units, can also be suspended or debarred from
government contracts based on the results of investigations. However, although
the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does
not believe there is any audit, review or investigation currently pending
against the Company of which management is aware that is likely to result in
suspension or debarment of the Company, or that is otherwise likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity,
although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for
that period.
The Company learns from time to time that it has been named as a defendant
in civil actions filed under seal pursuant to the False Claims Act. Generally,
since such cases are under seal, the Company does not in all cases possess
sufficient information to determine whether the Company could sustain a material
loss in connection with such cases, or to reasonably estimate the amount of any
loss attributable to such cases.
In connection with the spin-off, Allegheny Teledyne received a tax ruling
from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the spin-off will be tax-free to
Allegheny Teledyne and to Allegheny Teledyne's stockholders. The continuing
validity of the Internal Revenue Service tax ruling is subject to certain
factual representations and assumptions, including completion of a public
offering of the Company's common stock within one year following the spin-off
and use of the anticipated gross proceeds of approximately $125 million (less
associated costs) for research and development and related capital projects, for
the further development of the Company's manufacturing capabilities and for
acquisitions and/or joint ventures. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution
Agreement that Teledyne Technologies will sign prior to the spin-off, the
Company will agree with Allegheny Teledyne to undertake such a public offering.
The Tax Sharing and Indemnification Agreement between Allegheny Teledyne
and Teledyne Technologies will provide that the Company will indemnify Allegheny
Teledyne and its agents and representatives for taxes imposed on, and other
amounts paid by, them or ATI's stockholders if the Company takes actions or
fails to take actions (such as completing the public offering) that result in
the spin-off not qualifying as a tax-free distribution. If the Company were
required to so indemnify Allegheny Teledyne, such an obligation could have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and
cash flow and the amount the Company could be required to pay could exceed its
net worth by a substantial amount.
A number of other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be
asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its business, including
those pertaining to product liability, patent infringement, commercial,
employment and employee benefits. While the outcome of litigation cannot be
predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may
be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the
disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the
resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for that period.
