Infineon defies weaker US\$ with strong momentum: fiscal first quarter profitability better than expected

  • Q1 FY 2018: Revenue of €1,775 million; Segment Result €283 million; Segment Result Margin 15.9 percent; earnings per share €0.18 (basic and diluted); adjusted earnings per share €0.20 (diluted); gross margin 36.4 percent, adjusted gross margin 37.4 percent
  • Outlook for FY 2018: Only due to the weaker US\$ based on an assumed exchange rate of US\$ 1.25 to the euro for the remainder of the fiscal year, yearon-year revenue growth of about 5 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points) and Segment Result Margin of 16,5 percent at mid-point of revenue guidance
  • Outlook for Q2 FY 2018: quarter-on-quarter revenue growth of 4 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points) and Segment Result Margin of 16 percent at mid-point of revenue guidance

Neubiberg, Germany, 31 January 2018 – Infineon Technologies AG today reported its results for the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year (period ended 31 December 2017).

"Infineon has made a strong start to the new fiscal year," stated Dr. Reinhard Ploss, CEO of Infineon. "Earnings and margin were better than forecast – despite the expected slight seasonal dip in revenues. The market for electro-mobility continues to drive growth. Infineon offers solutions for the entire range of drivetrain systems from hybrid to pure electric vehicles. Moreover, we continue to benefit from excellent market conditions, which are driving high demand for power components used in applications across the board, such as solar power plants, especially in China, and also for data centers. Operationally we are fully on track. We could still defy the headwind from the weaker US\$ in the fiscal first quarter. Adjusted for the depreciation of the US\$ from 1.15 to 1.25, our revenue momentum is unchanged, in terms of the Segment Result Margin even slightly better. However, we are unable to compensate a further depreciation of the US\$ by another 8 percentage points, which negatively affects more than half of our revenues. As such, we currency-adjusted our outlook accordingly."

Review of Group financials for the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year

Compared to the preceding quarter, revenue declined by 2 percent to €1,775 million in the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year. Revenue in the previous quarter had amounted to €1,820 million. Compared to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, revenues increased by 8 percent. The Industrial Power Control (IPC), Power Management & Multimarket (PMM) and Chip Card & Security (CCS) segments all reported seasonal decreases, whereas the Automotive segment (ATV) recorded seasonally atypical revenue growth in line with expectations.

The gross margin in the first quarter came in at 36.4 percent, compared to 37.5 percent in the previous quarter. These figures include acquisition-related depreciation and amortization as well as other expenses attributable to the International Rectifier acquisition totaling €17 million. The adjusted gross margin came in at 37.4 percent, compared with 38.6 percent in the preceding quarter.

The first-quarter Segment Result amounted to €283 million, compared to €328 million in the fourth quarter of the previous fiscal year, with the Segment Result Margin declining from 18.0 percent to 15.9 percent.

The first-quarter non-segment result improved to a net loss of €35 million, compared to the net loss of €56 million reported for the preceding quarter. Of the first-quarter figure, €18 million related to the cost of goods sold, €16 million to selling, general and administrative expenses and €1 million to research and development expenses. The non-segment result for the first quarter includes €30 million of depreciation and amortization arising in conjunction with the purchase price allocation and other expenses for post-merger integration measures relating to International Rectifier.

Operating income for the first quarter totaled €248 million, compared to €272 million in the preceding quarter. Income from continuing operations for the three-month period improved to €206 million. The corresponding figure for the previous quarter had been €177 million. Income from discontinued operations remained stable at a negative amount of €1 million. Net income increased from €176 million to €205 million quarter-onquarter. The first-quarter income tax expense amounted to €28 million, significantly lower than the tax expense of €84 million reported for the fourth quarter.

Earnings per share improved quarter-on-quarter from €0.16 to €0.18 (basic and diluted in each case). Adjusted earnings per share1 (diluted) amounted to €0.20, compared to €0.22 in the fourth quarter. For the purpose of calculating adjusted earnings per share (diluted), a number of items are eliminated, most notably acquisition-related depreciation/amortization and other expenses (net of tax) as well as valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.

Investments – which Infineon defines as the sum of purchases of property, plant and equipment, purchases of intangible assets and capitalized development costs – amounted to €293 million in the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year, compared to €370 million in the preceding three-month period. Depreciation and amortization remained almost unchanged at €204 million, compared to the previous quarter's €205 million.

First-quarter free cash flow2 from continuing operations was a negative amount of €135 million, compared to a positive amount of €249 million one quarter earlier. Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations amounted to €158 million, compared to the previous quarter's €616 million.

1 Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (diluted) should not be seen as a replacement or superior performance indicator, but rather as additional information to the net income and earnings per share (diluted) determined in accordance with IFRS. The detailed calculation of adjusted earnings per share is presented on page 9.

2 For definitions and the calculation of free cash flow and of the gross and net cash position, please see page 12.

The gross cash position at the end of the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year amounted to €2,312 million, compared to €2,452 million at 30 September 2017. The net cash position amounted to €503 million, compared to €618 million three months earlier.

Provisions relating to Qimonda decreased from €33 million at 30 September 2017 to €32 million at 31 December 2017. These provisions are recognized for legal costs in conjunction with the defense against claims made by the Qimonda insolvency administrator and for residual liabilities related to Qimonda Dresden GmbH & Co. OHG.

Outlook for the second quarter of the 2018 fiscal year

In the second quarter of the 2018 fiscal year, Infineon expects a quarter-on-quarter revenue increase of 4 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points). The forecast is based on an assumed exchange rate of US\$1.25 to the euro for the remainder of the quarter. At the mid-point of revenue guidance, the Segment Result Margin is expected to come in at 16 percent.

Outlook for 2018 fiscal year

Based on an assumed exchange rate of US\$1.25 to the euro for the remaining fiscal year (previously assumed: US\$1.15), Infineon forecasts year-on-year revenue growth of about 5 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points) for the remainder of the 2018 fiscal year. Previously, an increase of about 9 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points) had been expected. The average EUR/US\$ exchange rate during the 2017 fiscal year was 1.11 and thus more favorable for Infineon's revenue and earnings performance than the exchange rate of 1.25 assumed from now on. At an unchanged exchange rate of 1.11, expected year-on-year growth would be significantly higher and within the double-digit percentage range. At the mid-point of revenue guidance – even based on the newly assumed EUR/US\$ exchange rate of 1.25 from now on compared to the previous 1.15 – the Segment Result Margin is predicted to come in at 16.5 percent. The ATV segment is expected to grow at a significantly faster pace than the Group average. The IPC segment is expected to grow roughly in line with Group average. The PMM segment is forecast to report a growth rate below the Group average. Given the difficult market situation and the strong depreciation of the US\$, a decline in revenue is predicted for the CCS segment.

Investments in property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and capitalized development costs totaling between €1.1 and €1.2 billion are planned for the 2018 fiscal year. The ratio of investments to revenue at the mid-point of revenue guidance for the

2018 fiscal year should therefore be about 15 percent and hence above the target level of 13 percent of revenue. This development reflects high investments in additional manufacturing capacities, especially for electro-mobility products, which, along with other lines of business, are expected to see growing demand. Depreciation and amortization is expected to be in the region of €880 million.

Segment earnings in the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year

ATV segment revenue rose to €770 million in the first quarter of the 2018 fiscal year, up by 5 percent on the previous quarter's figure of €736 million. Compared to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, revenues increased by 9 percent year-over-year. Demand for products for electric drivetrains contributed significantly to the seasonally atypical revenue growth that had been predicted. The Segment Result amounted to €103 million compared to 109 million in the preceding quarter. The Segment Result Margin came in at 13.4 percent, compared with 14.8 percent in the final quarter of the previous fiscal year.

Phone: +49 89 234 23888 +49 89 234 26655 Due to seasonality, IPC segment revenue was 10 percent down in the preceding threemonth period deceasing from €328 million to €296 million quarter-on-quarter. Compared to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, revenues increased by 12 percent year-overyear. Looking at renewable energy, revenue from wind power products was held down by seasonal factors. However, revenue from products sold for photovoltaic applications remained more or less unchanged, in this case atypical for the time of the year. Demand for home appliances and electric drives was weaker for seasonal reasons. The Segment Result declined from €60 million in the fourth quarter of the 2017 fiscal year to €48 million in the first quarter of the current fiscal year. The Segment Result Margin came in at 16.2 percent, compared to 18.3 percent in the preceding quarter.

PMM segment revenue totaled €545 million, the 5 percent decrease being attributable to seasonal factors. The corresponding figure for the preceding quarter was €573 million. Compared to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, revenues increased by 10 percent year-over-year. The decline was mainly due to seasonal weaker demand in mobile devices. Revenue from the sale of products for AC-DC and DC-DC power supply decreased only minimally in both cases. The first-quarter Segment Result amounted to €107 million, compared to the previous quarter's €126 million. The Segment Result Margin amounted to 19.6 percent compared with 22.0 percent in the preceding quarter.

CCS segment revenue decreased by 10 percent from €181 million to €162 million quarter-on-quarter. Compared to the first quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, revenues decreased by 7 percent year-over-year. The decline in revenue was primarily due to the depreciation of the US\$, the volatility in demand related to projects and seasonally weaker demand in the areas of government ID, authentication and embedded SIM cards. By contrast, revenue from business with payment cards grew. The first-quarter Segment Result amounted to €25 million, compared to €33 million in the fourth quarter. The Segment Result Margin came in at 15.4 percent, compared to the previous quarter's 18.2 percent.

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows

Gross and Net Cash Position

The following table reconciles the gross cash position and net cash position (i.e. after deduction of debt). Since some liquid funds are held in the form of financial investments, which, for IFRS purposes, are not considered to be "cash and cash equivalents", Infineon reports on its gross and net cash positions in order to provide investors with a better understanding of Infineon's overall liquidity. The gross and net cash positions are determined as follows from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position:

Cash and cash equivalents 745 860 634
Financial investments 1,567 1,592 1,575

Long-term debt 1,493 1,511 2,014
T otal debt 1,809 1,834 2,043
Net cash position 503 618 166

Free Cash Flow

Infineon reports the free cash flow figure, defined as net cash provided by and/or used in operating activities and net cash provided by and/or used in investing activities, both from continuing operations, after adjusting for cash flows related to the purchase and sale of financial investments. Free cash flow serves as an additional performance indicator, since Infineon holds part of its liquidity in the form of financial investments. This does not mean that the free cash flow calculated in this way is available to cover other disbursements, since dividend, debt-servicing obligations and other fixed disbursements are not deducted. Free cash flow should not be seen as a replacement or superior performance indicator, but rather as an additional useful piece of information over and above the disclosure of the cash flow reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and as a supplementary disclosure to other liquidity performance indicators and other performance indicators derived from the IFRS figures. Free cash flow includes only amounts from continuing operations, and is derived as follows from the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows:
