Forward-Looking Statements, Non-GAAP Measures The following information may contain forward-looking statements, including forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to Colfax’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical or current fact, including those related to DJO. Forward-looking statements are based on Colfax’s current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause Colfax’s results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, the effects of the DJO transaction on Colfax and DJO operations and the factors detailed in Colfax’s reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission including its 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption “Risk Factors.” In addition, these statements are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change. This presentation speaks only as of the date hereof. Colfax disclaims any duty to update the information herein. Colfax has provided in this presentation financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITA, and core or organic sales growth (decline). Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITA exclude restructuring charges and other related items, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, inventory step-up charges, and portfolio transformation costs, to the extent they impact the periods presented. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share also exclude the impact of acquisition- related amortization, pension settlement (gain) loss, and gain or loss on short term investments, to the extent they impact the periods presented. Core or organic sales growth (decline) excludes the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These non-GAAP financial measures assist Colfax management in comparing its operating performance over time because certain items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long- term performance difficult, as they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency or relate to discrete restructuring plans that are fundamentally different from the ongoing productivity improvements of the Company. Colfax management also believes that presenting these measures allows investors to view its performance using the same measures that the Company uses in evaluating its financial and business performance and trends. 2
