Maxwell Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results and Provides Business Outlook for Third Quarter 2018

Note: A webcast of Maxwell's conference call will be available at 5:00 p.m. EDT today at http://investors.maxwell.com.

SAN DIEGO - August 6, 2018 - Maxwell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXWL) today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Total revenues for the second quarter of 2018 were $29.5 million, compared with $28.4 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $37.1 million for the prior year quarter. Net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $11.3 million, compared with a net loss of $9.2 million for the first quarter of 2018 and a net loss of $10.1 million for the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $7.8 million, compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $5.5 million for the prior year quarter. The Company reported $(4.6) million of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) for the second quarter of 2018, compared with $(4.2) million for the first quarter of 2018 and $(1.8) million for the prior year quarter.

"In Q2 we came in about where we expected. The recent U.S. tariffs on China imports, as well as unclear U.S. tax incentive policy, continue to cause uncertainty for some of our customers and, therefore, affect our high voltage capacitor revenue. We now believe that the tariffs implemented on July 6 will slightly affect our energy storage revenue in Q3. Despite this, we believe that the long-term fundamentals of our business have not changed. End demand in the markets we serve is growing, we continue to make excellent progress with our dry battery electrode technology development and strategic partnership discussions, and our overall strategy is playing out as intended," said Dr. Franz Fink, Maxwell's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to make progress in all our energy storage target markets and are well positioned for long-term growth. Although we are facing short-term headwinds, the core energy storage product line is stable and market indicators bode well for mid- to long-term robust demand for our high voltage capacitor products. In Q3, we anticipate 15% sequential top-line revenue growth at the mid-point of guidance, despite the short-term pressure we are experiencing."

Fink also added, “We believe that strengthening our balance sheet is a priority given the current geopolitical uncertainty and its immediate impact on our business. In order to preserve the long-term growth and value of the company for our shareholders, we intend to pursue additional financing, which may include equity financing, debt financing, strategic partnerships or other financing arrangements. We anticipate the need for a minimum of $15 million in incremental capital to bridge the company to a recovery to prior revenue levels. We are evaluating our financial alternatives, including the amount we may seek to raise, in order to ensure continuity of investment in future growth programs such as dry battery electrode and energy storage.”

Discussion of Financial Results for the Second Quarter

Revenue and Gross Margin

•

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $29.5 million, compared with $28.4 million for the first quarter of 2018, driven by an increase in high voltage capacitor revenue. High voltage capacitor revenue was $6.8 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared with $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2018, due to higher China tenders. Energy storage revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $22.7 million, compared with $23.0 million for the first quarter of 2018, driven by anticipated seasonal growth in Wind offset by decreases in other markets due primarily to the timing of project-based revenue and last-time buys for certain products related to the Nesscap portfolio consolidation.

•

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2018 was 18.4% compared with 20.0% in the first quarter of 2018, driven primarily by higher costs associated with the global manufacturing consolidation and an unfavorable shift in product mix for energy storage product sales, offset partially by an increase in high voltage capacitor product sales, which generally have higher gross margins than the corporate average.


•	Non-GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of 2018 was 19.9% compared with 21.5% in the first quarter of 2018 and excludes acquisition related intangibles amortization and stock-based compensation expense.

Operating Expense, Interest Expense, Net Loss & Adjusted EBITDA


•	Operating expense for the second quarter of 2018 was $15.4 million, compared with $15.0 million for the first quarter of 2018. The quarter-over-quarter increase was driven primarily by higher project-related engineering expenses.


•	Non-GAAP operating expense for the second quarter of 2018 was $12.7 million compared with $12.5 million for the first quarter of 2018 and excludes stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and a restructuring related expense.


•	Net interest expense was approximately $1.0 million for both the second and first quarters of 2018, which includes coupon interest and non-cash interest from amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts on convertible notes issued in 2017.


•	Non-GAAP interest expense was approximately $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2018 compared with $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2018, and excludes the non-cash interest mentioned above.


•	Net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $11.3 million, or $(0.30) per share, compared with a net loss of $9.2 million, or $(0.25) per share, for the first quarter of 2018.


•	Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $7.8 million compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2018.


•	Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2018 was $(4.6) million, compared with $(4.2) million for the first quarter of 2018.



Maxwell Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results and Provides Business Outlook for Third Quarter 2018	Page 4 of 15

Capital Expenditures


•	Capital expenditures during both the second and first quarters of 2018 were $3.9 million. Capital expenditures in the second quarter were primarily related to the Korea manufacturing facility expansion as well as ultracapacitor, lithium-ion capacitor and dry battery electrode equipment.

Liquidity

•

Maxwell’s cash position was approximately $25 million as of July 31, 2018, including $10.0 million of additional borrowings under our revolving line of credit in July 2018. Maxwell management has determined that unless we raise sufficient capital in the form of debt or equity, there is uncertainty as to whether the Company will have sufficient funds to continue as a going concern. Factors that have contributed to a reduction in our cash position include the geopolitical environment relating to trade tariffs, extended collection cycles for receivables from customers in China, and a build-up of transitional inventory with a contract manufacturer as part of our global manufacturing optimization strategy intended to expand gross margins.

Business Highlights

•

Maxwell announced the launch of its new Grid Cell Pack and Grid Energy Storage System, two new highly scalable system solutions designed to deliver reliable, fast responding, long lifetime storage in grids and microgrids. The harnessing of intermittent solar and wind energy is expected to more than double over the next five years, causing instability and increased power and frequency deviances in the grid, potentially resulting in service disruption. Maxwell's new system solutions are designed to stabilize voltage and frequency, firm renewable power output, provide bridging and ramping services, and improve generator response. They can be deployed as stand-alone energy storage systems or in combination with other energy storage assets, such as batteries, to improve utility project business cases, including stacked functionality and extension of battery life to lower capital expense, operating expense and lifetime cost.

Third Quarter 2018 Business Outlook


•	Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $32 million to $36 million.


•	Gross margin is expected to be 18.7%, plus or minus 150 basis points.


•	Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be 20.0%, plus or minus 150 basis points.


•	GAAP operating expense is expected to be in the range of $15.4 million to $15.6 million.


•	Non-GAAP operating expense is expected to be in the range of $12.8 million to $13.0 million.

The Company has reconciled expected GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin, operating expenses, adjusted EBITDA, net loss and net loss per share at the midpoint of guidance. However, the Company is not able to estimate additional potentially excluded and reconciling amounts due to the substantial uncertainties involved. The effect of these excluded items may be significant. The reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP third quarter outlook is as follows (in millions, except for percentages and per share data):

Notes Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures for internal evaluation and to report the results of its business. Information presented in this press release and in the attached financial tables includes financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure, within the meaning of Item 10 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance or cash flows that (a) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, which are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of operations, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) or condensed consolidated statements of cash flows; or (b) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, which are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.

The Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release, in its earnings conference call and in its on-going evaluation of the business: (a) non-GAAP gross profit; (b) non-GAAP operating expense; (c) non-GAAP income (loss) from operations; (d) EBITDA; (e) adjusted EBITDA; (f) non-GAAP net income (loss); (g) non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share and (h) non-GAAP gross margin.



Maxwell Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results and Provides Business Outlook for Third Quarter 2018	Page 7 of 15

The definitions of non-GAAP financial measures used in this news release are presented below:


•	Non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP gross profit exclude the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and acquisition related expense.


•	Non-GAAP operating expense excludes the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and related costs, acquisition related expense, shareholder advisement and settlement costs and SEC and FCPA legal and settlement costs.


•	Non-GAAP loss from operations excludes the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and related costs, acquisition related expense, shareholder advisement and settlement costs and SEC and FCPA legal and settlement costs.


•	Adjusted EBITDA excludes the effect of foreign currency exchange loss, other income, stock-based compensation, restructuring and related costs, acquisition related expense, shareholder advisement and settlement costs and SEC and FCPA legal and settlement costs.


•	Non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash interest expense, restructuring and related costs, acquisition related expense, shareholder advisement and settlement costs and SEC and FCPA legal and settlement costs.

The Company believes that these measures provide useful information to its management, board of directors and investors about its operating activities and business trends related to its financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the Company's management and board of directors use these non-GAAP financial measures in developing operating budgets and in reviewing the Company's results of operations, as non-cash items, non-recurring items and items unrelated to ongoing operating results have limited impact on current and future operating decisions. Additionally, the Company believes that inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with its past reports of financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures are intended to supplement GAAP financial information, and may be computed differently from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. However, investors should be aware that non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company's non-GAAP financial measures included in this news release exclude the following non-cash items, non-recurring items or items unrelated to its ongoing operating results, as applicable:


•	Stock-based compensation expense consisting of non-cash charges for stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase plan awards and bonuses and director's fees expected to be settled with the Company's fully vested common stock.


•	Amortization of intangibles consisting of non-cash amortization of purchased intangibles acquired in connection with the Company's acquisition of the assets, including the operating subsidiaries, of Nesscap Energy, Inc.



Maxwell Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results and Provides Business Outlook for Third Quarter 2018	Page 8 of 15


•	Non-cash interest expense consisting of amortization of convertible debt discounts and amortization of convertible debt transaction costs, net of interest capitalized.


•	Restructuring and related costs including restructuring and exit costs incurred in connection with the Company's restructuring plans.


•	Acquisition related expense consisting of costs incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition of the assets, including the operating subsidiaries, of Nesscap Energy, Inc. which include transaction and integration expenses as well as the fair value adjustment for acquired inventory recorded in cost of revenue.


•	Shareholder advisement and settlement costs which represent external advisor expenses incurred in connection with preparing for the Company's 2016 and 2017 shareholder proxy and annual meeting and shareholder settlement costs.

•

SEC and FCPA legal and settlement costs which represent external legal expenses and settlement expenses related to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's investigation of the facts and circumstances surrounding the restatement of the Company's financial statements for the fiscal years 2011 and 2012, as well as for ongoing legal matters related to previous Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) violations.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in the section entitled “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included toward the end of this release.
