Cash provided by operations in the third quarter was $45.9m. During the quarter, the Company repurchased 4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $25.15 per share. Revenue from the Company’s Commercial Systems division increased 16% from the third quarter of 2010, to $196.4m. Within the Commercial Systems division, revenue from the Thermal Vision and Measurement segment was $161.0m, an increase of 22% over the third quarter combined results of Thermography and Commercial Vision Systems last year. Commercial Systems’ Raymarine segment contributed $35.4m of revenue during the quarter. Revenue from the Company’s Government Systems division increased 7% over the third quarter of 2010, to $174.9m. Within the Government Systems division, revenue from the Surveillance segment was $139.8m, a decrease of 14% from the third quarter of 2010 results of the Company’s legacy Government Systems business. Revenues from Government Systems’ other two segments, Detection and Integrated Systems were $21.2m and $13.9m, respectively. The Company’s backlog of firm orders for delivery within the next twelve months was approximately $546m at September 30, 2011, an increase of $60 during the quarter. Backlog in the Government Systems division was $374m, increasing $55m during the quarter. Backlog in the Commercial Systems division was $172m, up $6m during the quarter. Earl Lewis, President and CEO of FLIR, noted, “We are pleased with our third quarter results. During the quarter, we took successful steps to improve operating margins, achieved the best bookings quarter since 2008 in our legacy Government Systems business, saw our acquired Detection and Integrated Systems segments reach profitability for the first time, and delivered the most units in the history of our Commercial Systems division. Our scale, unique operating model, and continued focus on innovation will enable our continued growth.” Based on financial results for the first nine months of 2011 and the outlook for the remainder of the year, FLIR is reaffirming its outlook for earnings per share for the full year 2011. Management currently expects net earnings excluding the net after tax impact of the second quarter litigation settlement and the third quarter severance costs to be in the range of $1.50 to $1.55 per diluted share, or $1.33 to $1.38 per diluted share including these costs. Management now expects revenue for the full year 2011 to be in the range of $1.55bn to $1.6bn, compared to the prior outlook for revenue in the range of $1.6 to $1.65bn.
