Knowles Reports Q3 2018 Financial Results and Provides Outlook for Q4 2018
Q3 Revenues up 21 Percent Y/Y Above High End of Guidance Range
Expect 11 Percent Revenue Growth in 2018
ITASCA, Ill., Oct. 24, 2018 - Knowles Corporation (NYSE: KN), a market leader and global provider of advanced micro-acoustic, audio processing, and precision device solutions, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.
“We delivered Q3 revenues above the high end of our guidance range,” said Jeffrey Niew, president and CEO of Knowles. “Sales in our Audio segment were 19 percent higher than the year ago period driven by Mobile, Ear, and IoT markets. Revenue from Chinese customers more than doubled year-over-year on strong MEMS microphone demand and higher-than-expected sales of Intelligent Audio solutions. In the Precision Devices segment, revenues increased more than 30 percent from the year ago period and we achieved record sales for the third consecutive quarter due to strong demand for capacitors across defense, industrial, and automotive end markets.”
“We expect to see full year 2018 revenue growth of 11 percent driven by both segments. Our transition from an acoustic component supplier to an audio solutions provider is well underway and we are at the very early stages of penetrating a greater-than-$1 billion market opportunity in audio processing. I continue to believe that our core capabilities in acoustics, signal processing, and algorithms are unique, and we are positioned for continued growth across all of our end markets in 2019,” continued Niew.
Financial Highlights
The following table highlights the Company’s financial performance on both a GAAP and supplemental non-GAAP basis for continuing operations* (in millions, except per share data):

| Gross profit | $89.8 | $73.2 | $74.1 | 23% | 21% |
| (as a % of revenues) | 38.0% | 38.9% | 37.8% | ||
| Non-GAAP gross profit | $90.7 | $74.2 | $76.3 | 22% | 19% |

As a result of proposed regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service on August 1, 2018, the Company recorded charges of $3.1 million in Q3 2018 related to the provisional impacts of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Reform Act”) and charges of $36.0 million from the resulting consequences that were accounted for as uncertain tax positions. These provisional adjustments and uncertain tax positions, which are excluded from the calculation of Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, are subject to further adjustment based on potential changes in the interpretation of the Tax Reform Act and its supporting regulations, subsequent guidance that may be issued, and the Company’s resulting tax planning activities.
In addition to the GAAP results included in this press release, Knowles has presented supplemental non-GAAP gross profit, earnings before interest and income taxes, adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, as well as other metrics on a non-GAAP basis that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure to facilitate evaluation of Knowles’ operating performance. Non-GAAP results are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP information should be considered a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles’ performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles’ opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, stock-based compensation, certain intangibles amortization expense, fixed asset impairment charges, restructuring, production transfer costs, and other charges which management considers to be outside our core operating results. Knowles believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see the reconciliation table accompanying this release.
Fourth Quarter 2018 Outlook
The forward looking guidance for the quarter ending December 31, 2018 on a continuing operations basis is as follows:
| GAAP | Adjustments | Non-GAAP | |
| Revenues | $210 to $240 million | — | $210 to $240 million |
| Gross Profit Margin | 40 to 42% | 1% | 41 to 43% |
| EPS | $0.22 to $0.28 | $0.09 | $0.31 to $0.37 |
Q4 2018 GAAP results for continuing operations are expected to include approximately $0.06 per share in stock-based compensation and $0.03 per share in amortization of intangibles and debt discount. Expected Q4 2018 GAAP results exclude potential restructuring items.

Notes:
(1) In addition to the GAAP financial measures included herein, Knowles has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles' performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles' opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance. Knowles believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance.
(2) Production transfer costs represent duplicate costs incurred to migrate manufacturing to facilities primarily in Asia. These amounts are included in the corresponding Gross profit and Earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes for each period presented.
(3) | In 2018, Other expenses in Gross profit and Operating expenses represent expenses related to acquisitions and the remaining Other expenses represent an adjustment to pre-spin-off pension obligations. In 2017, Other primarily represents expenses related to the acquisition of certain assets of a capacitors manufacturer. |
(4) | Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, for GAAP purposes we are required to recognize imputed interest expense on the Company’s $172.5 million of convertible senior notes due 2021 that were issued in a private placement in May 2016. The imputed interest rate is 8.12% for the convertible notes due 2021, while the actual coupon interest rate of the notes was 3.25%. The difference between the imputed interest expense and the coupon interest expense is excluded from management’s assessment of the Company’s operating performance because management believes that this non-cash expense is not indicative of its core, ongoing operating performance. |
(5) | Income tax effects of non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are calculated using the applicable tax rates in the jurisdictions of the underlying adjustments. Adjustments are also made to exclude charges related to the provisional impacts of the Tax Reform Act and the resulting consequences that were accounted for as uncertain tax positions. |
(6) | The non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are those adjustments made to reconcile Earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes to Adjusted earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes. |
(7) | The number of shares used in the diluted per share calculations on a non-GAAP basis excludes the impact of stock-based compensation expense expected to be incurred in future periods and not yet recognized in the financial statements, which would otherwise be assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method. |
