Interim Report H1 2020
January 1 to June 30, 2020
Elmos meets forecast for the second quarter 2020 – turning point in the current quarter Q2 2020: Sales at 58.8 million Euro / EBIT margin at 5.4%
"While sales are currently still strongly influenced by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, we see the turning point in the third quarter due to the development of incoming orders. We perceive a revival of business in the different regions, especially Asia," says Dr. Anton Mindl, CEO of Elmos Semiconductor SE. "Moreover, our development projects are running at full speed and customer acquisition is equally successful. Our position in the market as, among other things, the global leader in ultrasonic distance measurement and a key player for LED rear lighting, is leading to numerous new customer relationships in various markets. Interest is also growing steadily in our semiconductors for ambient lighting in vehicles, the market-leading gesture control for intuitive operation, and our highly sensitive yet robust evaluation ICs. Recently developed solutions that specifically address the pressure and temperature monitoring needs of high-performance batteries in electric vehicles have generated important design wins with market-leading customers. We are therefore convinced that in the medium and long term we will participate disproportionately in the dynamic growth of semiconductors in vehicles."

Further information on the key figures used can be found in the 2019 Annual Report at www.elmos.com
Profit, financial position, as well as assets and liabilities
- -> The sales and earnings performance in the second quarter of 2020 is in line with the forecast given at the beginning of May and reflects first effects of coronavirus.
- -> The ratio of orders received for the next three months to sales over the past three months, known as the book-to-bill ratio, was well below one at the end of the reporting period.
- -> Research and development expenses reflect, among other things, the continuing high level of commitment to product development.
- -> Operating cash flow is also impacted by tax payments in the reporting quarter.
- -> As a result of the global coronavirus pandemic, Elmos introduced and successively expanded short-time work for certain areas from mid-April onwards. Currently all production departments and significant parts of administration are operating on shorttime work. As part of this measure the Management Board and executives, as well as employees not affected by short-time work, are voluntarily waiving part of their salary in solidarity.

1 The figures relate exclusively to continuing operations.
Sales by region Economic environment
- -> According to the German Automotive Industry Association (VDA), the effects of the coronavirus pandemic and measures taken to contain it caused sales to fall sharply in the international car markets in the first half of 2020. The number of new car registrations fell in Western Europe (-39.5%), the United States (-23.5%), China (-22.5%), and Japan (-20.1%). The slump in most markets caused by the coronavirus is "historically unprecedented," the VDA continued.
- -> The global economy, and the automotive industry in particular, are exposed to various risks, especially from the pandemic. Their further development and possible effects cannot comprehensively be assessed at the present time.
- -> In contrast, the outlook for the automotive semiconductor market in the medium term continues to be positive. According to a study by 360iResearch from June 2020, this market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 4.7% between 2019 and 2025.
Guidance
| Guidance for the 3rd quarter 2020 (as of August 3, 2020) | |
|---|---|
| Sales | 37 to 41 million Euro |
| EBIT | -13 to -10 million Euro |
| Ø Exchange rate | 1.15 EUR/USD |
- -> Due to the current situation as explained under "Economic environment" no full year guidance will be given.
- -> The quarterly guidance refers solely to sales and EBIT, as additional figures (capital expenditures and adjusted free cash flow) usually provided are subject to stronger fluctuations during the year.
Opportunities and risks
- -> The individual company risks and opportunities are described in our Annual Report 2019.
- -> As the COVID-19 pandemic is so extensive, the pandemic risk, which is listed under economic, political, social and regulatory risks, also has a significant effect on the other individual risks listed in the Annual Report 2019, in particular on industry/market risks, as well as business and operational risks. The severe negative impact on the global economy is also affecting the business performance of Elmos. At the present time, we are unable to estimate the future course of the COVID-19 pandemic in the markets important to us. With the exception of the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been no material changes in the overall risk situation for Elmos in the first six months of 2020 compared to the previous year.
- -> As also explained in the Annual Report, individual risks may cause substantial damage to the company in extreme cases. Such cases can neither be predicted nor ruled out. Apart from that, it must be noted that the occurrence of an individual risk might have material negative effects on the Company's financial, profit, and economic position, even without escalating to extremes.
Significant events
- -> The conversion of Elmos into a European stock corporation (Societas Europaea, SE) was completed with the entry in the commercial register on July 1, 2020. Elmos now trades under the name of Elmos Semiconductor SE, strengthening its international position.
- -> Elmos held its 21st Annual General Meeting as a virtual event on May 22, 2020. All items on the agenda were approved by a large majority.
- -> As part of a public share buyback offer, a total of 1.54 million shares at 17.50 Euro each were bought back for a total of approximately 27 million Euro. The settlement took place at the beginning of the second quarter. Elmos now holds 9.9% of the share capital.
- -> The cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Microelectronic Circuits and Systems IMS in Duisburg, Germany, was ended when the agreed contract period expired on June 30, 2020.

Notes to condensed interim consolidated financial statements January 1 to June 30
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the first half of 2020 were released for publication pursuant to Management Board resolution in August 2020.
1 – GENERAL INFORMATION
The address of the Company's registered office is Heinrich-Hertz-Straße 1, 44227 Dortmund, Germany.
Basic principles of the preparation of financial statements
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period January 1 to June 30, 2020, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting." These financial statements therefore do not contain all the information and disclosures required for consolidated financial statements and should therefore be consulted together with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
Essential accounting policies and measurement methods
For the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the same accounting policies and measurement methods have been adopted as were applied for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, with the exception of the amended IFRS standards and improvements explained below.
- -> Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: amendments to Definition of Material
- -> Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 7 – Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Interest Rate Benchmark Reform
- -> References to the Revised Conceptual Framework
- -> Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations: Definition of a Business
The initial application of these amended standards and improvements did not have a material impact on the Group's financial, profit, and economic position.
Estimates and assumptions
The Company recognizes provisions for pension obligations pursuant to IAS 19. For 2020, an actuarial interest rate of 0.85% has been applied, unchanged from December 31, 2019.
Exceptional business transactions
There were no exceptional business transactions in the first six months of 2020.
Estimates and discretionary decisions due to the COVID-19 pandemic
Estimates and discretionary decisions may have an impact on the amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet, and on the income and expenses disclosed for the reporting period. Due to the global consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, which are currently still impossible to predict, these estimates and discretionary decisions are subject to increased uncertainty. The available information on anticipated economic development was taken into account when updating the estimates and discretionary decisions as of June 30, 2020. The spread of coronavirus may affect the financial statements through interest rate adjustments in various countries, increasing volatility of foreign exchange rates, payment defaults or delayed payments, delays in the receipt of orders and in the execution and fulfillment of contracts, altered sales and cost structures, or volatility in the financial and raw materials markets. All these factors may affect the fair values and book values of assets and liabilities, as well as the amount and timing of income and expense recognition and cash flows.
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the interim financial statements and measures taken by Elmos
In the six months up to June 30, 2020, the business and economic environment of Elmos was negatively impacted to a significant degree by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is evidenced by a decline in key figures such as sales, EBIT, and adjusted cash flow. At the same time the Company has taken operational measures, including short-time work, to moderate the economic effects of the crisis caused by the pandemic. In addition, Elmos is implementing far-reaching preventative measures against the spread of coronavirus. For example, several hundred employees work in remote office, travel restrictions are in place, and entry checks are carried out. There are also extensive measures for social distancing and clear hygiene guidelines.
Basis of consolidation/Investments in associates
There were no changes in the basis of consolidation and/or investments in associates in the first half of 2020.
Seasonal and economic effects on business operations
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) expects global economic output to fall by 4.9% in 2020 compared with the previous year (as of end of June 2020). The only major industrialized nation that will see slight growth in 2020 is China (+1.0%). The pandemic restrictions were mostly lifted here in April 2020. According to the IMF, the U.S. economy is expected to fall by 8.0% in 2020. Germany's gross domestic product is expected to be 7.8% lower than in the previous year. For Europe in total, a minus of 10.2% is anticipated. Significant negative figures are also forecast for Russia, Brazil, and India. As Elmos is an international business, these developments will have a negative impact on the company's assets, liabilities, financial position, and profit or loss.

1 Previous year adjusted
Sales in the Micromechanics segment were generated by the U.S. subsidiary SMI in the first half-year of 2019. Effective September 30, 2019, this subsidiary left the Elmos Group's basis of consolidation due to a sale of shares in the entity. For this reason, the present segment report no longer includes information on the Micromechanics segment in the first half-year of 2020.
2 – INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following table lists the book values and fair values of the Group's financial instruments. The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability between market participants in a regular business transaction as of the measurement date. In view of varying factors of influence, the presented fair values can only be regarded as indicators of the amounts actually recoverable in the market. Detailed information on the methods and assumptions underlying the determination of the value of financial instruments can be found under note 29 to the 2019 consolidated financial statements. Its relevance to these half-year financial statements is undiminished.

At the end of each reporting period, a review is conducted to find out whether reclassifications between valuation hierarchies must be made. This review did not result in any reclassifications. The following presentation shows which valuation hierarchy levels (according to IFRS 13) financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified to.

REVIEW REPORT To Elmos Semiconductor SE
We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements – comprising the condensed statement of financial position, the condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the period, the condensed statement of changes in equity, the condensed statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes – and the interim group management report of Elmos Semiconductor SE, Dortmund, for the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020 which form part of the half-year financial reporting in accordance with section 115 German Securities Trading Act (Wertpapierhandelsgesetz – WpHG). The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the regulations of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of Company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statements audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.
Based on our review no matters have come to our attention that cause us to believe that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Elmos Semiconductor SE, Dortmund, for the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020 have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, or that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the regulations of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports.
