ON APRIL 22, 2004, INVISION ISSUED THE FOLLOWING PRESS RELEASE REGARDING ITS FIRST QUARTER 2004 FINANCIAL RESULTS: (INVISION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. LOGO) NEWS RELEASE Investor Contact: Laura Graves Director, Investor Relations 510-739-2448 Stan Neve Brunswick Group 212-333-3810 INVISION TECHNOLOGIES REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2004 FINANCIAL RESULTS NEWARK, CA (APRIL 22, 2004) - InVision Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVN) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 28, 2004. Total company revenues in the first quarter of 2004 were $76.9 million compared to revenues of $165.2 million in the first quarter of 2003. Net income on a GAAP basis was $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2004. InVision's diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation for the first quarter 2004 reflects the impact of the contingent conversion provision related to the $125 million of convertible senior notes issued in 2003. Under this provision, InVision's GAAP EPS was $0.25 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $34.4 million, or $1.87 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2003. Net income in the first quarter of 2004 also includes a pre-tax charge of $1.8 million related to transaction expenses associated with the company's pending acquisition by General Electric Company (NYSE: GE). Earnings on a pro forma basis excluding both the effect of the contingent conversion provision and the acquisition-related costs were $0.33 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2004. A reconciliation of pro forma net income and EPS to net income and EPS on a GAAP basis is provided in Schedule 1 following the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2004 was 37% compared to 44% in the first quarter of 2003. As of March 28, 2004, InVision had $284.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Total company backlog was $197.2 million. PERFORMANCE BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT InVision has two reportable segments: explosives detection systems (EDS) and non-destructive testing (NDT) systems. The EDS segment showed solid performance in the first quarter of 2004 with revenues of $55.1 million and income from operations of $9.8 million. EDS service revenues grew to $16.1 million during the quarter, representing an 89% increase compared to the same quarter of 2003. The NDT segment posted revenues of $16.2 million and a loss from operations of $200,000 in the first quarter of 2004. A reconciliation of reportable segment revenues and income from operations to consolidated InVision Technologies, Inc. Page 2 revenues and income from operations is provided in Schedule 2 following the condensed consolidated balance sheets. MANAGEMENT SUMMARY "InVision reported solid results in the first quarter of 2004, supported by continued strength in the EDS segment," said Sergio Magistri, Ph.D., InVision President and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to see very strong support for InVision products, both in the domestic market, as evidenced by the recent product order from the Transportation Security Administration, as well as in the international markets, such as the recent announcement of the company's first order from Thailand." OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS - General Electric announced that, subject to regulatory and InVision stockholder approvals, GE has agreed to acquire InVision in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $900 million, or $50 per share. - The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ordered CTX 9000 DSi automated EDS for integration into the baggage handling systems of certain airports in the United States. The delivery order is valued at $105 million, with an additional performance incentive of $3 million payable by March 2005. - The company reported in April 2004 the receipt of an order for 26 CTX 9000 DSi automated EDS, accessories and service for the new Bangkok International Airport in Thailand. This first order from Thailand provides further evidence of InVision's increasing presence in Asia. Bangkok International will be the first international airport to provide 100% in-line screening of checked baggage. - InVision announced that its subsidiary, Yxlon, entered into a contract for the delivery and installation of XES 3000 X-ray diffraction based EDS at Rhein-Main Airport in Frankfurt, Germany. The value of the contract is approximately $11 million with an option to purchase additional systems, options and maintenance for a potential total contract value of up to approximately $18 million. - The company continued to participate in the TSA's evaluation program to assess the viability of existing EDS technology for inspection of break bulk air cargo. The company believes that computed tomography (CT) technology has great potential to address this on-going concern in our nation's approach to aviation security. - The company is currently in negotiations with the TSA and Boeing regarding service contract renewal. The company anticipates no disruption of service as a result of these discussions. InVision Technologies, Inc. Page 3 BUSINESS OUTLOOK The company is pleased with the federal government's indicated level of commitment to fund in-line EDS in larger airports, based on InVision's recent TSA order announcement and the latest TSA's Letter of Intent (LOI) funding program announcements. To date, the TSA has officially announced grants of $960 million under the LOI program to carry out construction retrofitting in nine domestic airports. InVision believes the overall need for in-line EDS at airports is considerably larger based on published TSA assessments and individual airport needs. President Bush's proposed 2005 budget includes over $890 million, a 20% increase over the 2004 budget, to support aviation security and other transportation security activities. This includes funds to improve the integration of EDS equipment into individual airports' baggage processing systems to increase security effectiveness and promote greater efficiency. Specifically, the proposed TSA budget includes $250 million for physical modification of commercial airports for the purpose of installing in-line EDS equipment and $150 million for procurement of checked baggage EDS. The budget also allocates $45 million for research and development of enhancement and next generation EDS. INVISION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Pro forma operating results (a) include the interest expense, net of tax, of $555,000 for our 3% convertible senior notes due 2023, which was excluded from the computation of our GAAP diluted EPS, (b) exclude the related increase of 3,906,250 in diluted shares due to the contingent conversion feature of the notes and (c) exclude expenses, net of tax, of $1.1 million related to the pending acquisition by General Electric. Pro forma operating results are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Pro forma operating results should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating results prepared in accordance with GAAP. We report pro forma operating results to provide investors with an alternative method for assessing our operating results. InVision Technologies, Inc.
