SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Proposed Acquisition by Teledyne Technologies Incorporated On August 10, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (“Teledyne”), and Detect Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Teledyne (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Teledyne. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock (subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement) will be canceled and converted into the right to receive $18.90 in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes. The Merger Agreement generally requires the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to operate its business in the ordinary course, subject to certain exceptions including as required by applicable law, pending consummation of the Merger, and subjects the Company to customary interim operating covenants that restrict the Company from taking certain specified actions without Teledyne’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) until the Merger is completed or the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. The completion of the Merger, which is currently expected to close in early calendar year 2027, is subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, including the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders. If the transaction is consummated, the Company’s common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Merger Agreement can be terminated under certain customary circumstances, including by mutual agreement, the imposition of a final and non-appealable governmental order that permanently enjoins or otherwise prohibits the Merger, an uncured breach of the Merger Agreement by the other party, or if the Merger has not been consummated by May 10, 2027, as may be extended to August 27, 2027 at the election of either the Company or Teledyne pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. Under certain specified circumstances in which the Merger Agreement is terminated, the Company is required to pay Teledyne a termination fee equal to $25.3 million.
