WESTCHESTER, Ill., November 1, 2018 — Ingredion Incorporated (NYSE: INGR), a leading global provider of ingredient solutions to diversified industries, today reported results for the third quarter 2018. The results, reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for 2018 and 2017, include items that are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures that the Company presents.

“In the third quarter, we experienced the effects of rapidly changing foreign currency exchange rates and responded to operational difficulties caused by unplanned power outages at our largest manufacturing facility in North America. We are addressing a challenging environment by aggressively driving operational improvements, structurally reducing costs, and taking necessary pricing actions while ensuring that we continue delivering on our customer experience commitments,” said Jim Zallie, Ingredion’s president and chief executive officer.

“To accelerate operational execution, we restructured our North America supply chain leadership, enabling more intense focus on freight cost optimization and on reducing complexity in our starch production facilities.  The transition of our Stockton customer volume and service to other plants in our network is on track, and will allow us to better align our manufacturing cost structure with future sweetener demand.”

*Adjusted diluted earnings per share (“adjusted EPS”), adjusted operating income and adjusted effective income tax rate are non-GAAP financial measures.  See section II of the Supplemental Financial Information entitled “Non-GAAP Information” following the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this press release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

“In addition to these actions, and as part of our $125 million Cost Smart savings program, we opened our Latin America finance shared service center in Guadalajara, which further consolidates Ingredion’s finance activities and supports the Company’s growth in the region.  Our Cost Smart initiatives continue to move us toward becoming a more streamlined and agile organization.”

“In the quarter, we continued to see strength in our on-trend specialty growth platforms such as clean and simple ingredients and specialty texturizers.  Consistent with our strategic intent to grow our specialties portfolio, we announced $60 million of planned specialty investments in Asia-Pacific, which will expand our capacity in modified waxy corn, tapioca, and rice specialty starches to meet growing global demand.”

Zallie concluded, “We continued to deploy cash with nearly $177 million of share repurchases during the first nine months of 2018, including $36 million in the third quarter. We remain focused on delivering further shareholder value as demonstrated by our dividend increase for the fourth consecutive year and the accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement announced today. These underscore our Board’s confidence in Ingredion’s long-term growth opportunities and profitability.”

Financial Highlights

·                  At September 30, 2018, total debt and cash and short-term investments were $1.67 billion and $437 million, versus $1.86 billion and $604 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017. Cash and short-term investments reductions were primarily driven by the pay down of debt and share repurchases.

·                  Net financing costs were $24 million or $8 million higher in the third quarter than the year-ago period, primarily driven by foreign-exchange losses in Argentina including the effects of hyperinflation accounting.

·                  Reported and adjusted effective tax rates were 25.8 percent and 24.7 percent, compared to 22.1 percent and 26.7 percent, respectively, in the year-ago period. The change in the reported rate was driven by the impact of the 2017 tax benefit related to the U.S./Canada settlement, and partially offset by the U.S. tax reform. The change in the adjusted rate was driven predominantly by U.S. tax reform.

·                  Capital expenditures were $234 million for the first nine months of 2018, up $12 million from the year-ago period, driven by increased investments in growing specialty ingredients.

·                  Execution of the $125 million Cost Smart savings program has begun. The Company expects to generate cost run-rate savings of $4 million to $5 million in 2018, $24 million to $34 million cumulatively in 2019, building to $125 million by year-end 2021, before inflationary effects.

Business Review

Total Ingredion

Net Sales

·                  Third quarter net sales were down compared to the year-ago period. Favorable price/mix primarily due to raw material and foreign exchange pricing pass through was more than offset by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

·                  Year-to-date net sales were flat compared to the year-ago period. Specialty volume growth as well as favorable price/mix, primarily due to raw material and foreign exchange pricing pass through, were offset by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Operating income

·                  Reported and adjusted operating incomes for the quarter were $155 million and $189 million, decreases of 33 percent and 21 percent, respectively, from the same period last year. The decreases were largely

INGREDION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 RESULTS – Page 4

attributable to foreign-exchange headwinds, higher production and supply chain costs in North America, and to a lesser extent lower sweetener demand.

·                  Year-to-date 2018 reported and adjusted operating income were $545 million and $590 million, decreases of 14 percent and 12 percent, respectively, compared to $634 million of reported operating income and $669 million of adjusted operating income for the 2017 year. These decreases were largely attributable to higher production and supply chain costs in North America, foreign-exchange headwinds, lower sweetener demand, North America commodity margin pressures, and higher raw material costs in Asia-Pacific that were partially offset by operating income growth in South America and EMEA.

·                  Third quarter reported operating income was lower than adjusted operating income by $34 million.  Restructuring charges related to Cost Smart of $31 million were associated with the cessation of wet milling at the Company’s Stockton, California facility and restructuring charges related to Cost Smart SG&A initiatives were $3 million.

·                  Year-to-date reported operating income was lower than adjusted operating income by $45 million. Restructuring charges related to Cost Smart of $31 million were associated with the cessation of wet milling at the Company’s Stockton, California facility, restructuring charges related to Cost Smart SG&A initiatives were $9 million and we incurred $5 million of other restructuring costs.

North America

Operating income

·                  Third quarter operating income was $138 million, a decrease of $39 million from a year ago.  The decrease was driven by higher production and supply chain costs and lower U.S./Canada sweetener demand.

·                  Year-to-date operating income was $431 million, a decrease of $84 million from a year ago. The decrease was largely driven by higher production and supply chain costs, lower U.S./Canada sweetener demand and commodity margin pressures.

South America

INGREDION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 RESULTS – Page 5

Operating income

·                  Third quarter operating income was $22 million, a decrease of $4 million from a year ago. Foreign exchange headwinds in Brazil and Argentina and lower volumes were partially offset by improved operational efficiencies.

·                  Year-to-date operating income was $68 million, an increase of $23 million from a year ago. Improved operational efficiencies, the lapping of the 2017 Argentina manufacturing optimization project and modest volume growth more than offset foreign exchange headwinds in Brazil and Argentina.

Asia-Pacific

Operating income

·                  Third quarter operating income was $25 million, down $5 million from a year ago. Specialty volume growth was more than offset by a lag in the pass through of higher tapioca costs and the layout of corn costs.

·                  Year-to-date operating income was $75 million, down $15 million from a year ago. Specialty volume growth was more than offset by a lag in the pass through of higher tapioca costs.

Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA)

Operating income

·                  Third quarter operating income was $26 million, flat to a year ago. Specialty and core volume growth were offset by foreign exchange headwinds in Pakistan and higher raw material costs.

·                  Year-to-date operating income was $86 million, up $3 million from a year ago. The increase was largely driven by specialty and core volume growth partially offset by higher raw material costs and foreign exchange headwinds in Pakistan.

Dividends and Share Repurchases

·                  During the third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 349,000 shares of common stock in the open market for approximately $36 million and raised the quarterly dividend from $0.60 to $0.625. Year-to-

INGREDION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2018 RESULTS – Page 6

date share repurchases were approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock for approximately $177 million.

·                  In the next few days, the Company intends to initially settle the repurchase of 4 million shares of its outstanding common stock pursuant to an ASR agreement. Upon final settlement after a price averaging period expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2019, the Company would be entitled to receive cash or additional shares or be required to pay cash or deliver additional shares, depending on the movement of the Company’s share price over the averaging period. The ASR would be part of the Company’s existing share repurchase program.

2018 Guidance

As previously announced, the Company expects 2018 adjusted EPS to be in the range of $6.80-$7.05 compared to adjusted EPS of $7.70 in 2017. This expectation excludes acquisition-related, integration and restructuring costs, as well as any potential impairment costs. The full-year guidance assumes, compared to last year: North America operating income down due to higher production and freight costs; Asia-Pacific operating income down due to prolonged higher tapioca costs; South America and EMEA operating income up; an adjusted effective tax rate range of approximately 26.5-28.0 percent; and continued higher-value specialty ingredients growth.

Excluding one-time cash receipts from tax benefits, cash from operations in 2018 is expected to be in the range of $720 million to $750 million. Capital expenditures are anticipated to be between $330 million and $360 million, with the increase expected to result from additional U.S. based investments.

Notes

(i) As a result of the Company’s adoption of ASC 606, the Company identified certain fulfillment costs which were included as a reduction in “Net sales before shipping and handling costs” which represent fulfillment activities rather than a discount to the transaction price.  The Company has elected to reclassify these costs on a retrospective basis, resulting in $17 million and $48 million reclassified from “Net sales before shipping and handling costs” to “Less: shipping and handling costs” for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.  Reported net sales does not change as a result of this reclassification.

(ii) As a result of the Company’s adoption of the amendments to ASC 715, the Company was required to retrospectively present service costs separate from the other components of net periodic benefit costs.  The other components of net periodic benefit costs have been reclassified from Cost of sales and Operating expenses to Other, non-operating income.  The result is a reduction to Operating income and increase to Other, non-operating income of $2 million and $5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

II.  Non-GAAP Information

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we use non-GAAP historical financial measures, which exclude certain GAAP items such as acquisition and integration costs, impairment and restructuring costs, and certain other special items. We generally use the term “adjusted” when referring to these non-GAAP amounts.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance. By disclosing non-GAAP financial measures, management intends to provide investors with a more meaningful, consistent comparison of our operating results and trends for the periods presented. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP historical financial measure to the most comparable GAAP measure is provided in the tables below.
