Here is what Artisan Partners specifically said about Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) in its Q2 2022 investor letter:

“We trimmed our position in Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) during Q2 as shares approached our PMV estimate. Teledyne is a supplier of enabling technologies to sense, transmit and analyze information for a diverse group of end markets, including aerospace & defense, factory automation, medical imaging, oil & gas, pharmaceutical research and environmental monitoring. The company is delivering healthy organic growth despite headwinds from semiconductor shortages, led by particular strength in its dental and industrial imaging. Margins and cash flows have accelerated as management has successfully integrated its 2021 acquisition of FLIR Systems, a leader in thermal imaging systems. Meanwhile, Teledyne’s shares have recently benefited from an anticipated increase in demand from Western governments seeking to supply Ukraine with military equipment. The company’s aerospace and defense segment is not core to our thesis—Teledyne’s margins and top-line growth have benefited for over a decade from reducing exposure to this area and placing more emphasis on asset-light businesses—though in the current environment it will likely experience a period of elevated demand.”
