Maxwell Reports Fourth Quarter 2016 Results and Executes Key Strategic Actions
~ Provides Business Outlook for First Quarter 2017 ~
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 - February 28, 2017 - Maxwell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXWL) today reported operational and financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2016. Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $26.4 million, compared with $25.5 million for the third quarter of 2016 and $49.8 million for the prior year quarter. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $12.2 million, compared with a net loss of $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2016 and a net loss of $2.2 million for the prior year quarter. The Company reported $(3.9) million of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) for the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with $(2.3) million for the third quarter of 2016 and $3.9 million for the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $7.5 million, compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2016 and non-GAAP net income of $0.6 million for the prior year quarter.

"Q4 revenue came in at the high end of guidance with gross margins at lower than historical levels due to low utilization of our factory and one time charges. To counteract near-term challenges, we have implemented new, conservative planning and business models which discount China bus revenue and we have been working diligently on three key measures addressing business diversification, scale, and cost structure," said Dr. Franz Fink, Maxwell's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Today we announced a world-wide organizational restructuring and our intention to acquire substantially all of the assets and business of Nesscap Energy. The restructuring, combined with the Nesscap acquisition, accelerates business diversification, creates economies of scale and drives revenue growth and gross margin expansion in the near term, and as a result, allows us to approach break even adjusted EBITDA by the 4th quarter of this year. As a third key measure, we announced on January 31st that we will localize the manufacturing of ultracapacitor based modules in China with our strategic partner CRRC-SRI. This represents a critical milestone with respect to resuming our China bus business and, based on our new business model, provides potential future revenue upside opportunities."

Strategic Business & Operational Highlights
As announced today, Maxwell will purchase the operating entities of Nesscap Energy, Inc. ("Nesscap"), a developer and manufacturer of ultracapacitor products for use in transportation, renewable energy, industrial and consumer markets, for an aggregate purchase price of $23.175 million, payable in common shares that are subject to a 10% collar adjustment at close. Maxwell expects to capitalize on synergies between the two companies that will accelerate revenue and earnings growth, increase the pace of innovation, and create an expanded and strengthened product portfolio. With a strengthened sales channel, increased R&D capabilities and improved manufacturing and efficiencies, Maxwell will be able to deliver more products faster into target markets thereby benefiting customers. From a financial perspective, the transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to non-GAAP earnings per share following close, which is anticipated to occur in Q2 of 2017, and Maxwell expects the Nesscap business to deliver positive Adjusted EBITDA in 2017.
Launched a global restructuring plan which includes a reduction-in-force, significant cost containment actions, as well as a manufacturing and supply chain consolidation to further optimize cost structure and position the Company to better withstand near term headwinds. Maxwell expects to achieve approximately $6 million in annualized savings through these initiatives that, coupled with the acquisition of Nesscap's business, will accelerate the expected time to profitability.
Expanded Maxwell's partnership with CRRC Qingdao Sifang Rolling Stock Research Institute Co. Ltd. (“CRRC-SRI”) by entering into a definitive agreement in January 2017 to localize manufacturing of ultracapacitor-based modules for use in the China bus market. The production of bus modules extends Maxwell’s strategic partnership with CRRC-SRI and will enable Maxwell to compete more effectively in the China bus market moving forward.

Discussion of Financial and Operational Results for the Quarter
Revenue and Gross Margin
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $26.4 million, compared with $25.5 million for the third quarter of 2016, primarily due to an increase in high voltage revenue.
Ultracapacitor revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $12.7 million, compared with $14.0 million for the third quarter of 2016, driven primarily by a seasonal decline in wind turbine deployments in China, partially offset by higher auto and bus revenue.
High-voltage revenue was $13.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with $11.5 million for the third quarter of 2016, driven by higher demand.
The microelectronics product line was sold in the second quarter of 2016 and therefore has no revenue in the third or fourth quarter of 2016.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 21.6% compared with 29.9% in the third quarter of 2016; the decrease was driven by product mix, low factory utilization and higher costs associated with new products.

Page 4 of 12



Non-GAAP gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 22.4% compared with 30.5% in the third quarter of 2016.
Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA & Operating Expense
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $12.2 million, or $(0.38) per share, compared with a net loss of $6.9 million, or $(0.21) per share, for the third quarter of 2016. The quarter over quarter increase was a result of lower gross margin in the fourth quarter.
Non-GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $7.5 million compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2016.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $(3.9) million, compared with $(2.3) million for the third quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in gross margin in the fourth quarter.
Operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $15.6 million, compared with $13.6 million for the third quarter of 2016. The quarter-over-quarter increase was a result of expenses related to the acquisition of the operating subsidiaries of Nesscap Energy, Inc., which was announced today, and an asset impairment charge related to machinery that was no longer expected to be utilized.
Non-GAAP operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $12.3 million compared with $12.5 million for the third quarter of 2016 and excludes stock-based compensation, a fixed asset impairment charge, acquisition related expenses and legal expenses associated with SEC and FCPA matters.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures during the fourth quarter of 2016 were $1.3 million, compared with $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2016. Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter were primarily related to capital investments to support new technology and research and development activities.
Business Outlook
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2017 is expected to be in the range of $25 million to $27 million.
Gross margin for the first quarter of 2017 is expected to be in the range of 19% to 23%.
Non-GAAP gross margin for the first quarter of 2017 is expected to be in the range of 20% to 24%.
GAAP operating expense for the first quarter of 2017 is expected to be in the range of $15.3 million to $15.7 million.
Non-GAAP operating expense for the first quarter of 2017 is expected to be in the range of $12.4 million to $12.8 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 expectations. 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.

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 comprehensive income 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.
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 statements of operations included in this news release are affected by the following non-cash items, non-recurring items or items unrelated to its ongoing operating results:
Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for employee stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase plan awards and bonuses expected to be settled with the Company's fully vested common stock.



  Maxwell Reports Fourth Quarter 2016 Results

Gain on sale of product line consists of the gain recorded in connection with the sale of the Company's microelectronics product line.
Release of tax liability consists of a foreign tax liability that was released without payment due to the lapse of a statute of limitation.
Tax impact of potential cash repatriation consists of non-cash charges associated with a portion of the unremitted earnings of a foreign subsidiary that may be repatriated to the U.S.
Restructuring and related costs represent restructuring and exit costs incurred in connection with the Company's restructuring plan, disposition transaction costs consisting of legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with the sale of the microelectronics product line and executive transition costs representing recruiting and other expenses incurred in relation to the resignation and hiring of certain executive officers.
Accelerated depreciation charges represent the adjustment of the remaining useful life for certain manufacturing equipment in connection with the Company's restructuring plan.
Impairment of assets represents impairment of the net book value of machinery no longer forecasted to be used for its remaining useful life.
CFO transition costs consist of severance charges related to the departure of the Company's former CFO.
VAT refund represents a refund of value-added-tax related to operations in China.
Acquisition related expenses represent costs incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition of the operating subsidiaries of Nesscap Energy, Inc.
Shareholder proxy advisement fees represent external advisor expenses incurred in connection with preparing for the Company's 2016 shareholder proxy and annual meeting.
Legal costs for the FCPA and SEC matters represent external legal 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.
