Safe Harbor / Non-GAAP Measures

Various remarks that we may make in the following presentation about the company's future expectations, plans and prospects constitute forward- looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about future revenue and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including those discussed in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors," which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available in the "Investors" section of our website under the heading "SEC Filings." Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties relating to: the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic; the need to develop new products and adapt to significant technological change; implementation of strategies for improving growth; general economic conditions and related uncertainties; dependence on customers' capital spending policies and government funding policies; the effect of economic and political conditions and exchange rate fluctuations on international operations; use and protection of intellectual property; the effect of changes in governmental regulations; and the effect of laws and regulations governing government contracts, as well as the possibility that expected benefits related to recent or pending acquisitions may not materialize as expected. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if estimates change, therefore, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to today.

During this presentation, we will be referring to certain financial measures not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, including adjusted EPS and free cash flow. The non-GAAP financial measures of Thermo Fisher's results of operations and cash flows included in this presentation are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Thermo Fisher's results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and, for historical periods, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available under the heading "GAAP/Non-GAAP Reconciliation & Financial Package" in the "Investors" section of our website, www.thermofisher.com.
