Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On February 4, 2016, Teledyne Technologies Incorporated issued a press release with respect to its fourth quarter 2015 financial results. That press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by reference. The information furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02 shall in no way be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(e) On January 26, 2016, the Personnel and Compensation Committee (“Committee”) of Teledyne’s Board of Directors authorized payment of Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) cash bonus awards under the Teledyne Technologies Incorporated 2014 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) to each of the Named Executive Officers identified in Teledyne’s 2015 Proxy Statement with respect to the fiscal year ended January 3, 2016. AIP award opportunities are expressed as a percentage of a participant’s base salary and are based on the achievement of pre-defined performance measures, with up to 200% of the target award eligible to be paid in the case of significant over-achievement. The majority of the award is based on Teledyne’s achievement of certain financial performance goals, with a smaller portion tied to the achievement of pre-established individual goals. Generally, 40% of the awards are tied to the achievement of predetermined levels of operating profit, 25% to the achievement of predetermined levels of revenue, 15% to the achievement of predetermined levels of accounts receivable and inventory as a percentage of revenue and 20% to the achievement of specified individual performance objectives. These predetermined levels may vary by business unit. In addition, downward (but not upward) discretionary adjustments are allowed with respect to awards to Named Executive Officers. AIP awards are generally paid from a pool of up to 11% of operating profit, subject to modification by the Committee. No AIP bonus will be earned in any year unless operating profit is positive, after accruing for bonus payments, and operating profit is at least 75% of the operating plan, subject in each case to modification by the Committee.
The following table sets forth the current AIP cash bonus payments for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2016, to the Named Executive Officers identified in Teledyne’s 2015 Proxy Statement. The awards reflect 2015 operating results compared to the 2015 business plan, the respective executive’s individual performance and other factors:
