For 25 years, Danaher has focused on designing, manufacturing and marketing innovative products and services for professional, medical, industrial and commercial customers. For 25 years, we have strived to create value for our shareholders by delivering superior financial performance, including above-market sales growth and cash flow generation. For 25 years, we have endeavored to create a superior work environment for our 47,000 associates located around the globe. We thank our customers, our shareholders and our associates for continued confidence in Danaher, and we look forward to the sharing our successes with you over the next 25 years. 2009 Annual Report 1 dear fellow shareholder: We were pleased with the way our businesses executed in an exceptionally challenging operating environment throughout 2009. The Danaher team stayed focused throughout the year on both our customers and our performance. Key highlights include: • We delivered revenues in excess of $11.1 billion • We exceeded $1.6 billion in free cash flow • We generated a free cash flow to net income conversion ratio of 140%, representing the 18th consecutive year in which free cash flow exceeded net income • Our stock price appreciated more than 30% in 2009 We served our customers well during these difficult times, while delivering good results on a relative basis and again outperforming the S&P 500. invested in our future In 2009, we invested in projects and people with a focus on long-term paybacks, by making difficult decisions now, rather than sacrificing our future simply to deliver in the short term. It was a year of change and uncertainty, but we tackled it head-on as we always have and demonstrated the power of the Danaher Business System (DBS) and the quality of the Danaher team. During the year DBS helped us focus on internal growth investments, new product introductions and cost control and reduction activities, while staying active on the acquisition front, signing or closing 18 transactions during the year. We believed that the difficult macro economic environment would offer opportunities that others would not, or could not, seize and we were right. Go-to-Market Initiatives The combination of DBS and the innovative technologies resident in our businesses resulted in several of our companies capturing market share during the year. Over the past several years, we enhanced our suite of DBS go-to-market tools specifically intended to improve 2 2009 Annual Report growth and to capture share gains. New tools around setting clear expectations to drive more face-to-face selling opportunities, Web 2.0 marketing and improving brand positions helped us to outperform during the year. gilbarco veeder-root PassPort ® Perhaps the best example of that success is at ChemTreat, t oday’s convenience store environment has where in 2009 organic revenues grew at a mid-single digit more challenges than ever – more items, more rate in a market that we estimate declined at a high single programs, more components. gilbarco veeder- digit rate.

Innovation and Research and Development Over the last decade, we increased our focus on innovation and our research and development (R&D) efforts. R&D as a percent of sales increased from approximately 3% in 2001 to now quickly approaching 6% today. This is due both to the evolution of the portfolio and to the added emphasis we have placed on R&D across all of our businesses. Our commitment to R&D is important because it is a key part teKtroniX Mso70000 of accelerating organic growth, representing an investment in the future.

  • Danaher Corporation
    9-708-445 REV: APRIL 15, 2011 BHARAT ANAND DAVID J. COLLIS S O P H I E H O OD Danaher Corporation In early April 2010, Danaher Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer Larry Culp and his senior executive team were getting ready for another round of performance reviews of the firm’s diverse operating businesses. As usual at Danaher, this process was likely to involve not only conference room presentations but visits to the factory floor and conversations with customers. Culp had joined Washington D.C.-based Danaher after graduating from Harvard Business School in 1990, and was appointed CEO in 2001 at the age of 38. He had taken over a company that had generated compound annual stock returns of over 25% since its founding in 1985. Under Culp’s leadership so far, Danaher’s performance continued unabated. Between 2001 and 2006, Danaher’s revenues and net income more than doubled, the firm consummated over 50 acquisitions, and its stock price continued to outperform its peers by impressive margins1 (see Exhibit 1). And, while the “great recession” of 2008-09 impacted its businesses like any other industrial conglomerate, the company emerged relatively unscathed. Indeed, Culp was about to announce higher than expected earnings for yet another quarter. Culp was wary of the term “conglomerate,” instead referring to Danaher as a family of strategic growth platforms. Management defined a strategic growth platform as “a multi-billion-dollar market in which Danaher can generate $1 billion or more in revenue while being No. 1 or No. 2 in the market.”2 In 2010, Danaher’s portfolio comprised five such platforms, representing over 80% of its total revenue.
