NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
A. The Company
- --------------
Teradyne, Inc. (the "Company") designs, manufactures, markets, and services
electronic test systems and related software used by component manufacturers in
the design and testing of their products and by electronic equipment
manufacturers for the design and testing of circuit boards and other assemblies.
Manufacturers use such systems and software to increase product performance, to
improve product quality, to shorten time to market, to enhance
manufacturability, to conserve labor costs, and to increase production yields.
The Company's electronic systems are also used by telephone operating companies
for the testing and maintenance of their subscriber telephone lines and related
equipment.
The Company also manufactures backplane connection systems, principally for
the computer, telecommunications, and military/aerospace industries. A backplane
is a panel that supports the circuit boards in an electronic assembly and
carries the wiring that connects the boards to each other and to other elements
of a system.
B. Accounting Policies
- ----------------------
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated. Certain prior years' amounts were reclassified to conform
to the current year presentation. The year-end condensed balance sheet data were
derived from audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.
Preparation of Financial Statements
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited.
However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accrual entries) necessary for a fair presentation of such
information have been made. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
C. Recently Issued Accounting Standard
- ----------------------------------------
In February 1997, The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share, which
specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for
earnings per share. The statement is effective for periods ending after December
15, 1997, including interim periods. The adoption of this statement will not
have a material impact on reported net income per common share.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Sales of $336.7 million in the third quarter of 1997 were $75.0 million or
29% above those of the third quarter of 1996. The period to period increase in
sales was primarily due to an increase in shipments of semiconductor test
systems. Sales increased 16% in the third quarter of 1997 over the second
quarter of 1997 as incoming orders of semiconductor test systems increased for
the fourth consecutive quarter. As a result of the increase in sales in the
third quarter of 1997 compared to 1996, income before income taxes increased
$31.5 million to $57.4 million. For the first nine months of 1997, income before
income taxes (excluding the effect of a pre-tax nonrecurring product line
consolidation charge of $34.1 million taken in the second quarter of 1996)
decreased $46.1 million to $123.3 million.
7
<PAGE>
Incoming orders were $461.0 million in the third quarter of 1997 compared
to $215.2 million in the third quarter of 1996. The increase in incoming orders
was led by a 286% increase in semiconductor test systems orders. The Company's
backlog was $796.1 million at the end of the third quarter of 1997 compared with
$454.3 million at the end of third quarter of 1996.
Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales decreased from 63% of sales
in the third quarter of 1996 to 57% of sales in the third quarter of 1997 as
sales volume increased and certain overhead components of cost of products sold
remained fixed. Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales (excluding the
product line consolidation charge), increased from 57% in the first nine months
of 1996 to 58% in the first nine months of 1997. Included in cost of sales in
the first nine months of 1996 is a $34.1 million charge in connection with the
consolidation of the VLSI product lines of Megatest and Teradyne.
Engineering and development expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased
from 13% in the third quarter of 1996 to 12% in the third quarter of 1997.
Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased from
16% in the third quarter of 1996 to 15% in the third quarter of 1997.
Engineering and development and selling and administrative spending increased
$6.7 million and $10.2 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 1997 over
the same period in 1996. These spending increases were at rates of increase
below the third quarter year over year sales increase and were primarily related
to the development and introduction of new semiconductor test systems products.
Engineering and development expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased
from 12% for the first nine months of 1996 to 14% for the first nine months of
1997. Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased
from 14% for the first nine months of 1996 to 16% for the first nine months of
1997. These percentage of sales increases in the first nine months of 1997 over
the year earlier period resulted from increased spending on development and
introduction of new semiconductor test systems products coupled with a sales
decrease.
Interest income in the third quarter of 1997 was flat compared to the third
quarter of 1996. Interest income for the nine months of 1997 increased $3.1
million to $16.1 million over the year-earlier period due to an increase in the
Company's average invested balances and interest yields.
The Company's effective income tax rate was 34% in the first nine months of
1997 (which is the current estimate for the fiscal year) compared to 33% for
fiscal 1996. The increase in the 1997 fiscal rate is due to an in-process
technology charge related to the acquisition of Softbridge, Inc., taken in the
second quarter of 1997, which is non-deductible for income tax purposes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balance
decreased $111.1 million in the first nine months of 1997. Contributing to the
decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities was cash flow used
in operations of $3.2 million, the expenditure of $73.9 million to fund
additions to property, plant and equipment, the use of $73.6 million to acquire
2.0 million shares of the Company's common stock, and the use of $1.9 million
for principal debt payments. The Company generated cash of $41.5 million from
the sale of stock to employees under the Company's stock option and stock
purchase plans in the first nine months of 1997.
Inventories as a percentage of annualized quarterly revenues increased from
14.4% at December 31, 1996, to 16.6% at September 28, 1997, as the Company
expanded material purchases to support the shipment of new products. Property,
plant and equipment expenditures relate primarily to the expansion of production
capacity to accommodate higher volumes and the introduction of new products.
The Company believes its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities
balance of $320.4 million, together with other sources of funds, including the
available borrowing capacity of $120.0 million under its line of credit
agreement, will be sufficient to meet working capital and capital expenditure
requirements over the next twelve months.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results
- ----------------------------------------------
From time to time, information provided by the Company, statements made by
its employees or information included in its filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (including this Form 10-Q, the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K, and the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders) may contain
statements which are not historical facts, so-called "forward looking
statements," which involve risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements in
"Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations" relating to the sufficiency of capital to meet working capital
and planned capital expenditure requirements may be forward looking statements.
The Company's actual future results may differ significantly from those stated
in any forward looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences
include, but are not limited to, the factors discussed below. Each of these
factors, and others, are discussed from time to time in the Company's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company's future results are subject to substantial risks and
uncertainties. The Company's business and results of operations depend in
significant part upon capital expenditures of manufacturers of semiconductors,
which in turn depend upon the current and anticipated market demand for
semiconductors and products incorporating semiconductors. The semiconductor
industry has been highly cyclical with recurring periods of over supply, which
often have had a severe effect on the semiconductor industry's demand for test
equipment, including systems manufactured and marketed by the Company. The
Company believes that the markets for newer generations of semiconductors will
also be subject to similar fluctuations. The most recent downturn experienced
during 1996 contributed to a 37% decline in semiconductor test systems orders.
There can be no assurance that any increase in semiconductor test systems
bookings for a calendar quarter will be sustained in subsequent quarters. In
addition, any factor adversely affecting the semiconductor industry or
particular segments within the semiconductor industry may adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition and operating results.
The Company's quarterly and annual operating results are affected by a wide
variety of factors that could materially adversely affect revenues and
profitability, including: competitive pressures on selling prices; the timing
and cancellation of customer orders; changes in product mix; the Company's
ability to introduce new products and technologies on a timely basis;
introduction of products and technologies by the Company's competitors; market
acceptance of the Company's and its competitors' products; potential retrofit
costs; the level of orders received which can be shipped in a quarter; and the
timing of investments in engineering and development. In particular, the Company
has introduced a significant number of new, complex test systems in 1996 and
1997, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience delays
in shipment of such products or that such products will achieve customer
acceptance. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, the Company may
experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or
annual basis which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial
condition, operating results and stock price.
