Cautionary Statement
Certain statements included herein contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws about KEMET Corporation's (the
"Company") financial condition and results of operations that are based on management's current expectations, estimates and projections about the markets
in which the Company operates, as well as management's beliefs and assumptions. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates,"
variations of such words and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of
future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may
differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's judgment only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to update
publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.
Factors that may cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements include,
but are not necessarily limited to the following: (i) adverse economic conditions could impact our ability to realize operating plans if the demand for our
products declines, and such conditions could adversely affect our liquidity and ability to continue to operate and cause a write down of long-lived assets
or goodwill; (ii) an increase in the cost or a decrease in the availability of our principal or single-sourced purchased raw materials; (iii) changes in the
competitive environment; (iv) uncertainty of the timing of customer product qualifications in heavily regulated industries; (v) economic, political, or regulatory
changes in the countries in which we operate; (vi) difficulties, delays or unexpected costs in completing the restructuring plans; (vii) acquisitions and other
strategic transactions expose us to a variety of risks; (viii) acquisition of TOKIN may not achieve all of the anticipated results; (ix) our business could be
negatively impacted by increased regulatory scrutiny and litigation; (x) difficulties associated with retaining, attracting and training effective employees and
management; (xi) the need to develop innovative products to maintain customer relationships and offset potential price erosion in older products; (xii)
exposure to claims alleging product defects; (xiii) the impact of laws and regulations that apply to our business, including those relating to environmental
matters and cyber security; (xiv) the impact of international laws relating to trade, export controls and foreign corrupt practices; (xv) changes impacting
international trade and corporate tax provisions related to the global manufacturing and sales of our products may have an adverse effect on our financial
condition and results of operations; (xvi) volatility of financial and credit markets affecting our access to capital; (xvii) the need to reduce the total costs of
our products to remain competitive; (xviii) potential limitation on the use of net operating losses to offset possible future taxable income; (xix) restrictions
in our debt agreements that could limit our flexibility in operating our business; (xx) disruption to our information technology systems to function properly
or control unauthorized access to our systems may cause business disruptions; (xxi) fluctuation in distributor sales could adversely affect our results of
operations; and (xxii) earthquakes and other natural disasters could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations.
Our acquisition accounting, including the acquisition gains, are preliminary as management continues to evaluate the fair value of the net assets
acquired and consideration transferred. In addition, the allocation of the purchase price is based on estimates and assumption that are subject to
change with the measurement period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures designed to complement the financial information presented in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America because management believes such measures are useful to investors
for the reasons described below.
Adjusted gross margin
Adjusted gross margin represents net sales less cost of sales excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided
earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted gross margin to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by
excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our
ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted gross margin is
useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted gross
margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses represents selling, general and administrative expenses excluding adjustments which are
outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses
to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided
earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends
in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses is useful to investors because it provides
a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses
should not be considered as an alternative to selling, general and administrative expenses or any other performance measure derived in accordance
with GAAP.
Adjusted operating income (loss)
Adjusted operating income (loss) represents operating income (loss), excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation
provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted operating income to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business
operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make
comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted
operating income is useful to investors to provide a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and
monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted operating income should not be
considered as an alternative to operating loss or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.30
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Continued
Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS
Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS represent net income (loss) and EPS, excluding adjustments which are more specifically
outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) and
Adjusted EPS to evaluate the Company's operating performance by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation
provided earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult
and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS are useful to
investors because they provide a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and allows
investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted net income
(loss) and Adjusted EPS should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance measures
derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization
expense, excluding adjustments which are more specifically outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this
presentation. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance and ability to service debt. We also
present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe such measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested
parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity, because cash expenditures on interest
are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense goes
down as deductible interest expense goes up; depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges. The other items excluded from
Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect our continuing operations.
In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this
presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected
by these types of adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be
considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP
or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
31
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Continued
Our Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a
substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
• it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal
payment on our debt;
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often
have to be replaced in the future, and our Adjusted EBITDA measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such
replacements;
• it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
• it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our
ongoing operations;
• it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and
• other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a
comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available
to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.
You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only
supplementally.
