The impact of stock-based compensation expense was $5.6 million, as compared to $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2009. There was also $0.7 million of restructuring expense, a $71 thousand acquisition-related inventory step-up charge, and $0.7 million of non-recurring acquisition costs in the first quarter of 2010. This compares to a $4.5 million restructuring expense, a $0.2 million acquisition-related inventory step-up charge, and $0.5 million of non-recurring acquisition costs in the first quarter of 2009.
Excluding these items, first quarter 2010 non-GAAP operating income of $57.1 million was up 24 percent, as compared to the first quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP operating margin was 17.9 percent in the first quarter of 2010, as compared to 15.9 percent in the first quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP earnings per share for the first quarter of 2010 were $0.34, as compared to non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.28 in the first quarter of 2009. The tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 was 29 percent.
Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $55.0 million.
"First quarter results reflected growing momentum in our markets, led by the Engineering and Construction segment," said Steven W. Berglund, Trimble's president and chief executive officer. "While the shape of the recovery in some economic sectors remains uncertain, our confidence is growing that we can deliver double digit revenue growth in 2010 with disproportionately higher earnings growth. We also believe we have improved our strategic position during the economic downturn and can take full advantage of the recovery as it gains strength."
Trimble Results by Business Segment
Segment operating income is revenue less cost of goods sold and operating expenses, excluding general corporate expenses, restructuring expenses, amortization of intangibles, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up charges, non-recurring acquisition costs, and the impact of stock-based compensation expense.
Engineering and Construction (E&C)
First quarter 2010 E&C revenue was $157.6 million, up approximately 23 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to stronger sales in most regions.
Operating income in E&C for the first quarter 2010 was $18.8 million, or 11.9 percent of revenue, as compared to $2.5 million, or 2.0 percent of revenue, in the first quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP operating income in the first quarter of 2010 was $20.5 million, or 13.0 percent of revenue, as compared to $3.8 million, or 3.0 percent of revenue, in the first quarter of 2009. The improvement in non-GAAP operating margin was due to increased revenue and reductions in operating expenses.
Field Solutions
First quarter 2010 Field Solutions revenue was $95.9 million, down approximately 3 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2009.
Operating income in Field Solutions for the first quarter 2010 was $39.3 million, or 41.0 percent of revenue, as compared to $42.2 million, or 42.6 percent of revenue, in the first quarter of 2009.

The decline in non-GAAP operating margin was due to product mix and a decline in sales of public safety products.
Advanced Devices
First quarter 2010 Advanced Devices revenue was $27.5 million, up approximately 15 percent as compared to the first quarter of 2009.
Operating income in Advanced Devices for the first quarter 2010 was $5.6 million, or 20.4 percent of revenue, as compared to $4.3 million, or 18.1 percent of revenue, in the first quarter of 2009.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To help our readers understand our past financial performance and our future results, we supplement the financial results that we provide in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. The specific non-GAAP measures which we use along with a reconciliation to the nearest comparable GAAP measures and the explanation for why management chose to exclude selected items and the additional purposes for which these non-GAAP measures are used can be found at the end of this release. The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. Our non-GAAP results are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business, and to make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Management generally compensates for the limitations in the use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying on comparable GAAP financial measures and providing investors with a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure or measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP
financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this earnings release. Additional financial information about our use of non-GAAP results can be found on the investor relations page of our Web site at http://investor.trimble.com.
Forward Looking Guidance
For the second quarter of 2010 Trimble expects revenue between $320 million and $325 million, with GAAP earnings per share of $0.22 to $0.24 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.34 to $0.36. Non-GAAP guidance for the second quarter of 2010 excludes the amortization of intangibles of $13.9 million related to previous acquisitions and the anticipated impact of stock-based compensation expense of $5.6 million. Both GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share assume a 28 to 30 percent tax rate and 124.0 million shares outstanding.

FOOTNOTES TO GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION
(Dollars in thousands)
(Unaudited)
The non-GAAP financial measures included in the previous table are
non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP
operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted net
income per share and operating leverage, and non-GAAP segment
operating income before corporate allocations. These non-GAAP
measures can be used to evaluate the Company's historical and
prospective financial performance, as well as its performance
relative to competitors. The Company believes some of its
investors track the Company's "core operating performance" as a
means of evaluating the Company's performance in the ordinary,
ongoing, and customary course of its operations. Management also
believes that looking at its core operating performance provides a
supplemental way to provide consistency in period to period
comparisons. Accordingly, management excludes from non-GAAP those
items relating to restructuring, amortization of purchased
intangibles, stock based compensation, amortization of acquisition-
related inventory step-up and non-recurring acquisition costs,
which the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating
performance.
Restructuring. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of
sales and operating expenses, restructuring costs recorded are
primarily for employee compensation resulting from reductions
in employee headcount in connection with our company
restructurings. We exclude restructuring from our non-GAAP
measures because we believe they are not indicative of our
( A ) core operating performance.
Amortization of purchased intangibles. Included in our GAAP
presentation of cost of sales and operating expenses,
amortization of purchased intangibles recorded arise from
prior acquisitions and are non-cash in nature. We exclude
these expenses from our non-GAAP measures because we believe
( B ) they are not indicative of our core operating performance.
Stock-based compensation. Included in our GAAP presentation of
cost of sales and operating expenses, stock-based
compensation consists of expenses for employee stock options
and awards and purchase rights under our employee stock
purchase plan determined in accordance with SFAS 123(R). We
exclude stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP
measures because some investors may view it as not reflective
of our core operating performance as it is a non-cash
expense. For the three months ended April 2, 2010 and April
( C ) 3, 2009, stock-based compensation was allocated as follows:

Amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up. The
purchase accounting entries associated with our business
acquisitions require us to record inventory at its fair value,
which is sometimes greater than the previous book value of the
inventory. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of
sales, the increase in inventory value is amortized to cost of
sales over the period that the related product is sold. We
exclude inventory step-up amortization from our non-GAAP
measures because we do not believe it is indicative of our
( D ) core operating performance.
Non-recurring acquisition costs. Included in our GAAP
presentation of operating expenses and non-operating income
(loss), net, non-recurring acquisition costs consist of
external and incremental costs resulting directly from merger
and acquisition activities such as legal, due diligence and
integration costs. Also included are unusual acquisition
related items such as adjustments to the fair value of earnout
liabilities and payments made to settle earnout and holdback
disputes. We exclude these items because they are non-
recurring and unique to specific acquisitions and are not
( E ) indicative of our core operating performance.
Income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments. This amount adjusts
the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of the
( F ) non-GAAP adjustments on non-GAAP net income.
Stock-based Compensation. The amounts consist of expenses for
employee stock options and awards and purchase rights under
our employee stock purchase plan determined in accordance with
SFAS 123(R). As referred to above we exclude stock-based
compensation here because investors may view it as not
reflective of our core operating performance. However,
management does include stock-based compensation for
budgeting and incentive plans as well as for reviewing
internal financial reporting. We discuss our operating results
by segment with and without stock-based compensation expense,
as we believe it is useful to investors to understand the
impact of the application of SFAS 123(R) to our results of
operations. Stock-based compensation not allocated to the
reportable segments was approximately $1,815 and $1,227 for
the three months ended April 2, 2010 and April 3, 2009,
( G ) respectively.
