Gentherm Reports 2018 Third Quarter Results

Achieved Quarterly Revenue Growth Despite Industry Headwinds

Updates Full Year 2018 Guidance and Reaffirms 2021 Outlook

NORTHVILLE, Michigan, October 25, 2018 /Global Newswire/ -- Gentherm (NASDAQ:THRM), the global market leader and developer of innovative thermal management technologies, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Third Quarter Highlights

| • | Product revenues of $258.9 million increased 9.8% from $235.9 million in the third quarter of 2017

| • | GAAP loss per share was $0.01 as compared to GAAP earnings per share of $0.18 for the prior-year period

| • | Adjusted earnings per share, excluding impairment loss, restructuring expenses, unrealized currency loss, and expenses and other impacts related to acquisitions (see table herein), was $0.54. Adjusted earnings per share in the prior-year period was $0.36

| • | Secured record automotive new business awards totaling approximately $470 million in the quarter, of which 50% represents Climate Control Seat (CCS®)

| • | Repurchased $43.9 million of the Company’s stock

Phil Eyler, the company's President and CEO, said “I am excited about the continued progress we are making with our focused growth strategy. Despite the production headwinds in the industry, we achieved organic growth in automotive, outperforming our key markets by over 600 basis points. For the first time in six quarters, we delivered sequential and year-over- year revenue growth in CCS®. We had many exciting launches in the quarter, of note were the BMW X5 and 8 Series, comprised of significant incremental Gentherm content. We secured nearly $1.3 billion of new awards from top auto makers around the world year to date. In just three quarters, we have already surpassed our record of $1.2 billion in awards in 2017. In Medical, we delivered strong double-digit growth both sequentially and year over year.”

Continued Eyler, "In addition, we continue to lower operating expenses through the Fit-for-Growth program, which gives us confidence in achieving the adjusted EBITDA guidance for the year. The momentum we are seeing in new awards and the increased focus on margin position us well to achieve our 2021 outlook.”

2018 Third Quarter Financial Review

Product revenues for the third quarter of 2018 of $258.9 million grew $23.1 million, or 9.8%, as compared to the prior-year period. The year-over-year growth was comprised of a $21.4 million, or 9.9%, increase in the Automotive segment and a $1.7 million, or 8.1%, increase in the Industrial segment. Adjusting for the Etratech acquisition and foreign currency translation, organic product revenues increased 3.9% year over year.

Product revenues grew despite lower than expected automotive production in the Company’s key markets which include North America, Europe, Japan, Korea and China. When compared with IHS Markit's mid-July forecast for the third quarter of 2018, actual light vehicle production was approximately 6 percentage points

1

below forecast. In addition, when compared to the third quarter of 2017, actual light vehicle production declined by approximately 3% in the Company’s key markets.

The $21.4 million, or 9.9%, increase in automotive revenue was driven by growth in all products except Seat Heaters. This amount included $12.0 million from the acquisition of Etratech and a small negative impact from currency translation. Adjusting for those factors, the organic growth in the automotive segment was 3.5%. Importantly CCS® returned to growth increasing 4.5% to $97.9 million. Battery Thermal Management (BTM) also increased significantly, growing $4.7 million, or 170.9%, due to the continued rollout of the new thermoelectric based technology launched during the year. Partially offsetting these were declines in seat heaters and lower revenue at Etratech. Seat heater revenue, which was more impacted by lower European automotive production due to Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) and the declining vehicle production in China than the Company’s other products, decreased by $7.0 million, or 9.0%. On a pro-forma basis, Etratech revenue declined by $2.5 million, or 17.1%. The lower shipments of electronic modules was due to the softening recreational vehicle market and OEM discontinuations of two sedan models. Excluding Etratech, the automotive segment organic growth was 4.9%.

The $1.7 million increase in Industrial segment revenue was driven by an increase of $2.4 million, or 39.7%, in Cincinnati Sub-Zero (CSZ) medical revenue, resulting from the positive momentum from the new direct sales model. This increase was partially offset by lower revenue from the CSZ industrial chamber business and Global Power Technologies (GPT), which are classified as assets held for sale.

See the “Revenue by Product Category” table enclosed herein for additional detail.

The gross margin rate declined to 28.2% in the current year period, as compared to 29.8% in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of the lower margin on product revenues of Etratech, lower margin on BTM associated with the launch phase of the new actively cooled technology programs and the initial impact from tariffs which became effective during the quarter. These were partially offset by improved product mix and fixed cost leverage from higher unit volume.

Net research and development expenses of $19.1 million in the third quarter of 2018 declined $0.7 million, or 3.4%, year over year. R&D expenses continue to steadily decrease during the year and were down 18.2% from the 2018 first quarter and down 9.4% from the 2018 second quarter. These sequential decreases are the direct result of the Company’s focused portfolio and Fit-for-Growth cost reduction initiatives. The decline for the quarter was partially offset by an increase of $1.5 million associated with both the acquisition-related research and development costs of Etratech and higher costs for product development activities related to new products for both automotive and medical businesses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $32.6 million in the third quarter of 2018 decreased $1.8 million, or 5.2%, versus the prior-year period. Early stage cost savings from the Fit-for-Growth program more than offset increased costs associated with the acquisition of Etratech and the mark-to-market impact of stock compensation. On a sequential basis, SG&A decreased 3.2% from the 2018 second quarter and 11.7% from the 2018 first quarter after adjusting for the higher mark-to-market adjustment on cash settled stock options.

During the quarter, the Company recognized $5.8 million in restructuring expenses which resulted from completed actions associated with its Fit-for-Growth initiatives. Total implemented actions to date are expected to deliver annualized savings of approximately $30 million. The Company has now identified a total of $65 million of savings against its annualized target of $75 million by 2021. In addition to the restructuring expenses, the Company recorded an impairment loss totaling $11.5 million, or $0.31 per share, associated with the Company’s plans to divest GPT and the CSZ industrial chamber business, both of which are included in the Industrial segment. The loss is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

As described more fully in the table included below, “Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA,” the Company recorded Adjusted EBITDA of $35.7 million during the thir d quarter of 2018 compared to $25.9 million in the prior year, a year-over-year increase of $9.8 million.

Income tax expense in the third quarter of 2018 was $3.7 million on pre-tax earnings of $3.3 million. Adjusting for the $11.5 million non-deductible impairment loss, the effective tax rate for the quarter was 25%. This rate differed from the Federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to higher tax rates in foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 24% during the 2018 fourth quarter.

During the third quarter, the Company incurred a net foreign currency gain of $0.1 million, which included a net realized gain of $1.1 million, partially offset by a net unrealized loss of $1.0 million. This unrealized loss was primarily the result of holding a portion of its U.S. Dollar cash at the Company’s subsidiaries in Europe, as well as certain intercompany relationships. In the prior-year period, the Company recognized a net foreign currency loss of $7.3 million, which primarily represented a net unrealized foreign currency loss also related to the Company’s cash held at its European subsidiaries and intercompany cash balances.

The Company reported a loss per share for the third quarter of 2018 of $0.01, compared to earnings per share of $0.18 for the prior-year period, mainly driven by the aforementioned impairment loss. Adjusted earnings per share, excluding restructuring expenses, impairment loss, unrealized currency loss, acquisition transaction expenses and other items (see table included below), was $0.54. Adjusted earnings per share in the prior-year period was $0.36.

During the third quarter of 2018, the Company repurchased approximately 938,000 shares of its stock at a cost of $43.9 million. The Company repurchased an additional 701,000 shares at a cost of $29.1 million in October through October 24, pursuant to a plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1, bringing program-to-date repurchases to $101.8 million. As a result, there remains $198.2 million available under the current repurchase authorization.

Guidance

Based on IHS Markit's October automotive production forecasts, current forecasted product mix and other estimates, the Company updated its 2018 guidance as follows:

| • | Product revenues is expected to grow approximately 7% to approximately $1.05 billion, reflecting approximately 1% organic growth and the full-year contribution from Etratech, which was acquired in November 2017

| • | Operating expense is expected to be approximately 20% of product revenues

| • | Gross margin rate is expected to be approximately 29%

| • | Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately 14% of product revenues

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating its business, Gentherm considers and uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its operating performance. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, deferred financing cost amortization, transaction expenses, debt retirement expenses, impairment loss, restructuring expenses, unrealized currency gain or loss and unrealized revaluation of derivatives. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of liquidity and the Company's ability to service debt because it provides a measure of cash available for such purposes. Management provides an Adjusted EBITDA measure so that investors will have the same financial information that management uses with the belief that it will assist investors in properly assessing the Company's performance on a period-over-period basis.

The term Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under GAAP, and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Gentherm compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.
