Financial Results for the Second Quarter 2013

On August 8, 2013, Intermec, Inc. (“we,” “our” or “the Company”) filed our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 (the “Q2 2013 Form 10-Q”).

Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report, incorporated herein by reference, furnishes the unaudited financial statements from our Q2 2013 Form 10-Q, specifically:

Exhibit 99.1 includes unaudited supplemental sales information by category and by geographic region.

Exhibit 99.1 also includes, among other things, the following unaudited financial measures as adjusted on a Non-GAAP basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and July 1, 2012:

Reconciliations of each of these Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in Exhibit 99.1.

Our Non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe that excluding items such as, but not limited to, goodwill or asset impairment charges, restructuring charges (principally related to severance costs), costs or adjustments related to acquisitions, amortization of intangibles, executive severance and non-cash stock based compensation expenses, provides supplemental information useful to investors’ and management’s understanding of Intermec’s core operating results, especially when comparing those results on a consistent basis to results for previous periods and anticipated results for future periods.

The foregoing information in this Item 2.02 is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Exhibit 99.1

Information relating to our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

General

The information in this Item 7.01 is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
