Submarine interconnects for Virginia and Columbia-class submarines are driving strong marine sales, signaling robust demand for undersea warfare programs.
“Overall sales of marine instruments increased 3.2% due to strong sales of interconnects, used in offshore energy production and for U.S. Virginia and Columbia-class submarines.”
Teledyne's legacy DALSA E2V industrial imaging businesses collectively grew for the first time in two years, signaling a potential bottom in the machine vision cycle.
Teledyne is acquiring a small transponder technology business from Saab, indicating ongoing M&A activity and a relationship with the Swedish defense company.
“We also expect to close a small transponder tech Carbot from Saab very soon.”
… year. It may affect about, if it goes that long, it may affect about 25% of our sales somewhat, which are related to the government. But any temporary impact to commercial sales for which we may be dependent on U.S. government exports may be somewhat affected. Overall, I do not think this is going to affect Teledyne significantly. Also, you may have noted that China has designated Teledyne FLIR LLC as an unreliable entity. While customers in China represent only 4% of our sales in 2024-25, Such sales by Teledyne FLIR LLC were less than 0.4%. So we don't expect much effect from there. Actually, Teledyne Brown Engineering was added to the same list in December of 2024, but its sales to customers in China are zero. Finally, I must note, despite spending $770 million in cash years to date on acquisitions. Our current balance sheet is the strongest since prior to the FLIR acquisition in 2021. We also expect to close a small transponder tech Carbot from Saab very soon. Having recently received approval from the government of Sweden, Furthermore, we continue to pursue a number of other acquisition activities. George will now briefly comment on the performance of our business segments.
