Shareholder Litigation and Supplemental Proxy Statement Disclosures

As previously disclosed, on May 5, 2025, FARO Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company” or “FARO”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with AMETEK, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and AMETEK TP, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a direct and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

On June 12, 2025, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the solicitation of proxies in connection with the special meeting of the Company’s shareholders to be held on July 15, 2025, for purposes of voting, among other things, on a proposal to adopt and approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger.

Following the announcement of the Merger on May 6, 2025, two substantially similar actions have been filed by purported FARO shareholders against FARO and the Company’s board of directors, and FARO has received several demand letters from purported FARO shareholders. On June 19, 2025, a lawsuit styled Sullivan v. FARO Technologies, Inc. et al., Index No. 653711/2025 was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, and on June 20, 2025, a lawsuit styled Brady v. FARO Technologies, Inc. et al., Index No. 653725/2025 was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The complaints and demand letters assert similar claims against FARO and the Company’s board of directors regarding purported failure in relation to certain disclosures, including under New York state law and under Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 14a-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The complaints and demand letters allege, among other things, that the Proxy Statement filed with the SEC omitted material information regarding the financial projections, the financial analyses performed by FARO’s financial advisor, potential conflicts of interest of the Company’s board of directors and management, and the sales process leading up to the Merger. The complaints seek to enjoin the Merger unless and until the alleged omitted material information is disclosed, and seek other reliefs, including rescission of the Merger Agreement and/or rescissory damages, compensatory damages, and reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and other litigation costs.

The Company and the other defendants believe that the allegations in the complaints and the demand letters are without merit, that the Proxy Statement fully complies with the Exchange Act and all other applicable law, and that no further disclosure is required. However, solely to avoid the risk of delaying or otherwise adversely affecting the consummation of the Merger and to minimize the expense and distraction of defending such actions, FARO hereby voluntarily amends and supplements the Proxy Statement as set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Nothing in the supplemental disclosures set forth below should be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein.

The FARO board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote: (i) “FOR” the proposal to adopt and approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger; (ii) “FOR” the proposal to adjourn the special meeting to a later date or dates if necessary; and (iii) “FOR” the non-binding, advisory proposal to approve certain compensation that will or may become payable to FARO’s named executive officers in connection with the Merger, each as described in the Proxy Statement.

The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into the Proxy Statement. All page references in this Current Report on Form 8-K are to pages of the Proxy Statement, and all terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K, but not otherwise defined, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Proxy Statement. The following information should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement, which should be read in its entirety. To the extent that information in this Current Report on Form 8-K differs from or updates information contained in the Proxy Statement, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall supersede or supplement such information in the Proxy Statement.

Supplemental Disclosures to the Proxy Statement

The disclosure on pages 31 – 39 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Background of the Merger” is hereby supplemented by adding the underlined disclosure to the second full paragraph on page 33 of the Proxy Statement:

Beginning the week of January 13, 2025, representatives of Evercore initiated confidential discussions with 36 strategic and financial parties to explore their potential interest in pursuing a strategic transaction with the Company. Following this initial outreach, the Company entered into confidentiality agreements with 14 potentially interested parties, 12 of which had customary “standstill” provisions with “don’t-ask-don’t-waive” language intended to cause such party to submit their highest and best proposals in a competitive auction environment. None of the confidentiality agreements that included customary “standstill” provisions precluded such party from submitting a topping bid for the Company. Additionally, starting the week of January 13, 2025, the Strategic Alternatives Committee began meeting on a weekly basis, and the full Board began meeting on a bi-weekly basis, to receive updates from FARO Senior Management on outreach and other process-related issues.

The disclosure on pages 31 – 39 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Background of the Merger” is hereby supplemented by adding the underlined disclosure to the first full paragraph on page 34 of the Proxy Statement:

On March 6, 2025, representatives of AMETEK submitted an indication of interest whereby AMETEK proposed an all-cash purchase price of $36 per share. In neither the March 6, 2025 indication of interest nor any subsequent submission of indication of interest did AMETEK include or provide any proposed terms or guarantee of employment of the Company’s executive officers should a proposed transaction be completed.

The disclosure on pages 39– 43 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Recommendation of Our Board of Directors and Reasons for the Merger - Reasons for the Merger” is hereby supplemented by adding the underlined disclosure to the sixth full bullet paragraph on page 40 of the Proxy Statement:

•

the fact that the Merger Agreement was the product of arm’s length negotiations overseen by the Board, with all but one of its members being independent, as well as the belief of the Board, based on these negotiations, that these were the most favorable terms to FARO and its shareholders on which Parent was willing to agree under the then-current facts and circumstances;

The disclosure on pages 45 – 46 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Fairness Opinion of Evercore Group L.L.C. - Summary of Evercore’s Financial Analyses - Discounted Cash Flow Analysis” is hereby supplemented by adding the underlined disclosure to the last paragraph beginning on page 45 of the Proxy Statement:

Evercore calculated terminal values for FARO by applying a range of perpetuity growth rates of 4.0% to 6.0%, which range was selected based on FARO management guidance and Evercore’s professional judgment and experience, to an estimate of the unlevered, after-tax free cash flows of approximately $79 million that FARO was forecasted to generate in the terminal year based on the Forecasts.

The disclosure on pages 45 – 46 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Fairness Opinion of Evercore Group L.L.C. - Summary of Evercore’s Financial Analyses - Discounted Cash Flow Analysis” is hereby supplemented by adding the underlined disclosure to the first full paragraph on page 46 of the Proxy Statement:

The cash flows and terminal values in each case were then discounted to present value as of March 31, 2025 using discount rates ranging from 12.5% to 14.5%, representing an estimate of FARO’s weighted average cost of capital, as estimated by Evercore based on its professional judgment and experience, and based on the application of the capital asset pricing model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including debt to equity ratio, debt to total capitalization ratio, pre-tax cost of debt, and levered and unlevered betas, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally, to derive implied enterprise value reference ranges for FARO. Based on these ranges of implied enterprise values, FARO’s estimated net cash of approximately $24 to $31 million (taking into account conversion of the Convertible Notes, assuming cash settlement and no potential impact of the make-whole provision, per FARO management guidance) as of March 31, 2025, and the number of fully diluted outstanding shares of FARO common stock of approximately 21.2 million as of March 31, 2025, in each case as provided by FARO’s management, this analysis indicated ranges of implied equity values per share of FARO common stock of $30.25—$46.25 (rounded to the nearest $0.25), compared to the closing price of FARO common stock of $31.45 on May 5, 2025 and the Merger Consideration of $44.00 in cash per share of FARO common stock.

The disclosure on pages 46 – 47 of the Proxy Statement under the heading “The Merger - Fairness Opinion of Evercore Group L.L.C. - Summary of Evercore’s Financial Analyses - Selected Publicly Traded Companies Analysis” is hereby supplemented by deleting the text that is struck through and adding the underlined text in the first paragraph and table following the first paragraph and replacing the table following the third paragraph in such section on page 46 of the Proxy Statement:

Public market trading price targets published by equity research analysts do not necessarily reflect current market trading prices for the shares of FARO common stock and these target prices and the analysts’ earnings estimates on which they were based are subject to risk and uncertainties, including factors affecting the financial performance of FARO and future general industry and market conditions.

See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for more information about the FARO common stock they own.

Antitrust Update

Effective as of 12:50 p.m. Eastern Time on June 12, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission granted FARO and AMETEK’s request for early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, with respect to the Merger.

The Merger remains subject to antitrust approval in Romania.
