Life Science segment net sales for the fourth quarter were
Today, Bio-Rad was granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a COVID, influenza A, and influenza B RT-PCR syndromic multiplex test. The test, which allows discrimination between each of the three different viruses, runs on Bio-Rad’s CFX qPCR platforms as well as on qPCR systems from other providers. In addition, last month, the FDA granted an EUA for our COVID RT-PCR assay kit that also runs on Bio-Rad’s existing CFX qPCR platforms as well as qPCR systems from other providers. Both of these assay kits have been designed to ensure greater sensitivity and tolerance to potential mutations.
Clinical Diagnostics segment net sales for the fourth quarter were

same period in 2019. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 was impacted by the recognition of changes in the fair market value of equity securities, primarily related to the holdings of our investment in Sartorius AG. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 22.2 percent, compared to 20.9 percent for the same period in 2019. The tax rates for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 were affected by the large unrealized gain in equity securities. In addition, the 2019 tax rate included a tax benefit related to U.S. Tax Reform regulatory guidance issued in the quarter.
“While many of our markets are still operating at less than 100 percent, our COVID-19 related products surpassed expectations in the fourth quarter, and we experienced a larger than normal end-of-year budget release,” said Norman Schwartz, Bio-Rad President and Chief Executive Officer. “All of this combined to produce a strong finish for the year.”

A reconciliation between GAAP operating results and non-GAAP operating results is provided following the financial statements that are part of this press release. Non-GAAP adjustments include amortization of purchased intangibles; acquisition-related expenses and benefits; restructuring, impairment charges and valuation changes in equity-owned securities; gains and losses on equity-method investments; significant litigation charges or benefits and legal costs; and discrete income tax events and the income tax effect on these non-GAAP adjustments.
Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted income per share (non-GAAP EPS) are non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items detailed later in this press release under the heading “Non-GAAP Reporting.”
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was
The non-GAAP effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2020 was 24.3 percent, compared to 17.7 percent for the same period in 2019. The lower rate in 2019 was driven by favorable regulatory guidance relating to U.S. Tax reform issued in the fourth quarter of 2019.
The following table represents a reconciliation of Bio-Rad’s reported net income and diluted income per share to non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted income per share for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

Net income for 2020 was
The effective tax rate in 2020 was 22.4 percent compared to 22.2 percent in 2019. The tax rate in 2020 and 2019 was affected by the large unrealized gain in equity securities.
"Despite a challenging and unprecedented year, we are pleased with our overall performance in 2020,” Mr. Schwartz said. “We efficiently responded to the needs of our customers and our tight cost controls resulted in a robust operating profit improvement over 2019. We would like to recognize employees across our organization who have gone above and beyond to serve customers during this time. Our underlying progress in 2020 is a good base from which to grow as we head into the new year.”

2021 Financial Outlook
For the full year 2021, the company anticipates non-GAAP currency-neutral revenue growth of approximately 4.5 to 5.0 percent and an estimated non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 16.0 to 16.5 percent. Management will discuss this outlook in greater detail on the fourth-quarter and full-year 2020 financial results conference call.
“Looking ahead to 2021, we anticipate another year of progress, building on the operating efficiencies we achieved this year,” Mr. Schwartz said. “We expect the pandemic to continue well into 2021 with a gradual recovery in our end markets as the year progresses.”
Use of Non-GAAP Reporting and Currency-Neutral
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, which exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, certain acquisition-related expenses and benefits, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges, valuation changes of equity-owned securities, gains and losses on equity-method investments, and significant legal-related charges or benefits and associated legal costs. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS also exclude certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, tax provisions/benefits related to the previous items, and significant discrete tax events. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.
We utilize a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions, forecasting and planning for future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs. We consider the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of our business. We believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. We also believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. More specifically, management adjusts for the excluded items for the following reasons:
Amortization of purchased intangible assets: we do not acquire businesses and assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of purchase price allocated to purchased intangible assets and the term of amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition or purchase. We believe that excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets allows the users of our financial statements to better review and understand the
historic and current results of our operations, and also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.
Acquisition-related expenses and benefits: we incur expenses or benefits with respect to certain items associated with our acquisitions, such as transaction costs, professional fees for assistance with the transaction; valuation or integration costs; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss on settlement of pre-existing relationships with the acquired entity; or adjustments to purchase price. We exclude such expenses or benefits as they are related to acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the operation of our on-going business.
Restructuring, impairment charges and valuation changes in equity-owned securities and gains and losses on equity-method investments: we incur restructuring and impairment charges on individual or groups of employed assets and charges and benefits arising from valuation changes in equity-owned securities and gains and losses on equity-method investments, which arise from unforeseen circumstances and/or often occur outside of the ordinary course of our on-going business. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financials, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods.
Significant litigation charges or benefits and legal costs: we may incur charges or benefits as well as legal costs in connection with litigation and other contingencies unrelated to our core operations. We exclude these charges or benefits, when significant, as well as legal costs associated with significant legal matters, because we do not believe they are reflective of on-going business and operating results.
Income tax expense: we estimate the tax effect of the excluded items identified above to determine a non-GAAP annual effective tax rate applied to the pretax amount in order to calculate the non-GAAP provision for income taxes. We also adjust for items for which the nature and/or tax jurisdiction requires the application of a specific tax rate or treatment.
From time to time in the future, there may be other items excluded if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.
Percentage sales growth in currency neutral amounts are calculated by translating prior period sales in each local currency using the current period’s monthly average foreign exchange rates for that currency and comparing that to current period sales.
There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

| Reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures | |||||||||||||||||
| (In thousands, except per share data) | |||||||||||||||||
| (Unaudited) | |||||||||||||||||
| In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted income per share (non-GAAP EPS), which exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; certain acquisition-related expenses and benefits; restructuring charges; asset impairment charges; valuation changes of equity-owned securities; gains and losses on equity-method investments; and significant legal-related charges or benefits and associated legal costs. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS also exclude certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, tax provisions/benefits related to the previous items, and significant discrete tax events. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods. | |||||||||||||||||
| We utilize a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions, forecasting and planning for future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs. We consider the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of our business. We believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. We also believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. | |||||||||||||||||

2021 Financial Outlook
Forecasted non-GAAP operating margin excludes 105 basis points related to amortization of purchased intangibles. Forecasted non-GAAP operating margin does not reflect future gains and charges that are inherently difficult to predict and estimate due to their unknown timing, effect and/or significance, such as foreign currency fluctuations, future gains or losses associated with certain legal matters, acquisitions and restructuring activities.
