Knowles Reports Q1 2023 Financial Results and Provides Outlook for Q2
Q1 Gross Profit Margins Exceed High-End of Guided Range
Q1 Cash from Operations Above Expectations
Strong Sequential Revenue and Earnings Growth Expected in Q2
ITASCA, Ill., April 27, 2023 - Knowles Corporation (NYSE: KN) ("Knowles" or the "Company"), a market leader and global provider of advanced micro-acoustic microphones and balanced armature speakers, audio solutions, and high performance capacitors and radio frequency (“RF”) products, today announced results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
"Knowles delivered gross margins, adjusted EBIT margins, Non-GAAP diluted EPS, and cash from operations all above the mid-point of our guided ranges, driven by favorable mix and productivity gains in our operations." commented Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey Niew. "Our better than expected gross margins and cash from operations demonstrate the benefits of our diversified portfolio and track record of operational excellence as our teams around the globe identify savings to partially offset the negative effects of the low factory capacity utilization."
Looking ahead to the second quarter, we expect to see strong sequential revenue and earnings growth. I am increasingly optimistic that channel inventory levels are improving in several of the end markets we serve. Based on the improving trends across most of our markets I expect to return to year over year growth in the second half of this year."
Mr. Niew continued, "Knowles is well positioned across the markets we serve and despite the near term market challenges our strategy to focus on higher margin markets and products coupled with the restructuring actions taken gives us confidence to achieve our mid-term financial targets."

Second Quarter 2023 Outlook
The forward looking guidance for the quarter ending June 30, 2023 is as follows:
GAAP | Adjustments | Non-GAAP | |||||||||
Revenues | $165.0 to $180.0 million | — | $165.0 to $180.0 million | ||||||||
Gross Profit Margin | 38.7% to 40.7% | 0.30% | 39.0% to 41.0% | ||||||||
Diluted EPS | $0.11 to $0.15 | $0.09 | $0.20 to $0.24 |
Q2 2023 GAAP results are expected to include approximately $0.06 per share in stock-based compensation and $0.03 per share in amortization of intangibles.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
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, free cash flow, 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, 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.

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.

(2) Other expenses represent the ongoing net lease cost related to facilities not used in operations.
(3) Income tax effects of non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are calculated using the applicable tax rates in the jurisdictions of the underlying adjustments.
(4) The non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are those adjustments made to reconcile (Loss) earnings before interest and income taxes to Adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes.
(5) 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.
