Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 29, 2007, Teleflex Incorporated (the “Company”) completed the sale of its Teleflex
Aerospace Manufacturing Group (“TAMG”). TAMG met the
criteria for reporting as discontinued
operations under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) no. 144, “Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”
This Current Report on Form 8-K updates Items 6, 7 and 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 (the “Form 10-K”) to report TAMG as discontinued
operations pursuant to the requirements of SFAS No. 144 for the three years ended December 31,
2006, December 25, 2005 and December 26, 2004, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations. This presentation has no effect on the Company’s
previously reported net earnings (see exhibit 99.1).
In compliance with SFAS No. 144, the Company has previously reported revenues, expenses and gains
(losses) on the disposition of TAMG as income from discontinued operations in the quarter and three
months ended April 1, 2007 and the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2007 (and the comparable
periods of the prior years) in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q”). In addition to
reporting discontinued operations in the Statements of Income and Cash Flows the assets and
liabilities of TAMG have been reported as assets held for sale in accordance with SFAS No. 144 in
the Company’s balance sheets as of April 1, 2007 and July 1, 2007 also included in the Form 10-Q’s.
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, retroactive reclassification of the assets as held for sale at the
balance sheet date is not required. Accordingly no adjustments for assets held for sale have been
made to the balance sheets for December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005 as originally reported in
the Form 10-K and also presented herein.
All other items of the Form 10-K not presented herein remain unchanged. The Company has not updated
matters in the Form 10-K except to the extent expressly provided above.
Set forth in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto are updated consolidated financial statements and
selected financial information with respect to the operations of the Company for the years
presented in the Form 10-K.
