January 31, 2013 and Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend

Strong Medical Imaging and Security Sales Drive 10% Revenue Growth;

Double-Digit Non-GAAP Operating Margin in all Segments

PEABODY, Mass. (March 11, 2013) – Analogic Corporation (Nasdaq:ALOG), enabling the world’s medical imaging and aviation security technology, today announced results for its second quarter ended January 31, 2013.

Highlights during the second quarter (comparisons are against Q2 of fiscal 2012) included:

Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $138.6 million, an increase of 10% compared with revenue of $126.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $9.8 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared with net income of $19.6 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. Included in our GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2012, as previously reported, was an $0.80 benefit to diluted net income per share due to a tax refund and a gain on sale of an equity interest.

Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter was $13.2 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, compared with $12.5 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, in the prior year’s second quarter. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is included as an attachment to this press release.

For the first six months of fiscal 2013, revenue totaled $258.4 million, up 6% from the same period in the prior year. Year-to-date GAAP net income was $14.2 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared with $23.6 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, from the same period last year. Year-to-date non-GAAP net income was $19.9 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, compared with $19.2 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, in the same period last year.

Jim Green, president and CEO, commented, “We demonstrated very strong performance in our second quarter, in-line with our expectations, and we are on track to achieve our fiscal 2013 objectives. We saw solid demand in our Medical Imaging business for CT and MRI systems, driven by new product introductions. As we continued to drive direct end-customer sales, our Ultrasound business saw healthy growth in the U.S. and improvement in Europe. Lastly, our Security business achieved high double-digit growth as the market for high-speed threat detection systems accelerates.”

“At the beginning of March, we completed the acquisition of Ultrasonix Medical, complementing our already strong Ultrasound product portfolio and sales channel, and accelerating penetration into the point-of-care market,” Green continued. “We reaffirm our total company outlook for the year of upper single-digit revenue growth organically, and combined with the acquisition of Ultrasonix, we are targeting 10% revenue growth this fiscal year over last year. We also expect to improve annual non-GAAP operating margins by 100 basis points on a total company basis.”

Segment Revenues

Revenue from our Medical Imaging segment was $80.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, up 7% from revenue of $75.3 million in the same period of fiscal 2012. Medical Imaging revenues were up during the quarter due primarily to strong growth in sales of CT and MRI products, offset by lower shipments of digital mammography detectors. Year to date, Medical Imaging revenue was $156.7 million, up 6% from the prior year.

Our Ultrasound segment revenue was $40.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, down 2% from revenue of $41.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2012. Higher direct sales in North America and Europe were offset during the quarter by lower OEM transducer sales and the impact of distributor transitions in Eastern Europe. Year to date, Ultrasound revenue was $72.1 million, down 5% from the prior year.

Security Technology segment revenue was $17.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013, up 73% from revenue of $10.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2012. Security revenues were up during the quarter due primarily to strong shipments of high-speed threat detection systems as the market for high-speed threat detection systems accelerates. Year to date, Security revenue was $29.6 million, up 43% from the prior year.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

An explanation and a reconciliation of our non-GAAP measures are provided at the end of this press release.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS

UNAUDITED SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION—RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED (GAAP) TO NON-GAAP MEASURES

We provide income from operations, other income, net income, and diluted net income per share as supplemental measures to reported results regarding our operational performance. These financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. The adjustments to these financial measures, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We incur expense related to share-based compensation included in the reported presentation of cost of sales, research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expense. Although share-based compensation is an expense and viewed as a form of compensation, these expenses vary in amount from period to period, and are affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within our control, such as the market price and volatility of our shares, risk-free interest rates, and the expected term and forfeiture rates of the awards. Our management team believes that exclusion of these expenses allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent between periods and allows comparisons of our operating results to those of other companies that disclose non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation.

BK Medical Distributor Matter Inquiry-Related Costs

As previously disclosed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011, the Company has identified transactions involving our Danish subsidiary, BK Medical, and certain of its foreign distributors, with respect to which the Company has raised questions concerning compliance with law and the Company’s business policies. The Company has concluded that the identified transactions have been properly accounted for in our reported financial statements in all material respects. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2013 we incurred $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively of inquiry-related costs.

During the three and six months ended January 31, 2012 we incurred $0.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively of inquiry-related costs.

Acquisition Related Expenses

We incur amortization of intangibles and other expenses related to acquisitions. The intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition, are then amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed after the acquisition. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2013 our results included acquisition costs for the Ultrasonix acquisition of $0.7 million. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2012 our results included an adjustment to contingent consideration for the acquisition of an OEM ultrasound transducer and probe product line of less than $0.1 million. We believe the exclusion of these acquisition related expenses allow comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses.

Gain on sale of other investments

On July 25, 2011, we entered into an agreement to sell our 25% interest in our China-based affiliate for $2.5 million. The book value of our interest in the China-based affiliate was written down to $0 in fiscal 2006, and we, upon final approval of the transaction by the Chinese government, recorded a gain of $2.5 million in the three and six months ended January 31, 2012.

Taxes

For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, we adjust the provision (benefit from) for income taxes to tax effect the non-GAAP adjustments described above as they have a significant impact on our income tax provision (benefit). In addition, from time-to-time, we recognize certain non-recurring tax adjustments. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we received a refund of $12.0 million as the result of the completion of an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audit of federal income tax returns for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2005, and 2008. The refund was largely the result of Federal research and experimentation credits that carryover from the fiscal years 1991 through 2000 into the audited returns. We recorded a tax benefit for this refund, including the related interest, in the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Operations of $10.0 million in the three and six months ended January 31, 2012. The tax benefit from the refund and interest were partially offset by related contingent professional fees of $2.7 million recorded in general and administrative expenses within income from operations in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the three and six months ended January 31, 2012. As these adjustments do not reflect the underlying performance of the business they have been excluded from non-GAAP net income.

We exclude the above-described expenses, their related tax impact and other non-recurring tax benefits in evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations, and allocating resources to various initiatives and operational requirements. We believe that these non-GAAP financial adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

These non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
