NEWS RELEASE


October 19, 2017         

NCR Announces Third Quarter 2017 Results

DULUTH, Ga. - NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR) reported financial results today for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Third quarter highlights include:

GAAP diluted EPS of $0.77, up 12% from $0.69 in the prior year; Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.93, up 7% constant currency
Revenue of $1.66 billion, down 1% as reported and constant currency
Software revenue up 2%, Cloud up 5% and net ACV of $16 million in the quarter, up 37%
Transformation initiatives drive Services gross margin expansion of 450 basis points
Guidance reduced for full year 2017 due to lower than expected ATM revenue

“Third quarter results were within the range of our Q3 guidance for revenue and earnings, but orders, particularly for ATMs, were disappointing, and the primary cause of our need to reduce our full year guidance", said Chairman and CEO Bill Nuti. "ATM orders continue to be negatively impacted by large customer delays in spending in North America, weakness in India, the Middle East and Africa, and the upcoming Windows 10 conversion.  On the positive side, we saw strong net ACV growth again this quarter as a result of our customers embracing our SaaS solutions in digital banking and in our hospitality cloud portfolio.  In addition, we significantly expanded our Services margins as a result of higher revenue and our ongoing productivity programs, continuing a trend we have seen throughout the year.  Despite our near-term ATM hardware challenges, our investment priorities across our markets remain the same, and our confidence in the business remains strong.  We expect that the ATM market will recover in the medium-term and that may ultimately improve our revenue growth, but our strategic focus remains on driving software, cloud, and recurring revenue growth as priority number one."

In this release, we use certain performance metrics as well as certain non-GAAP measures, including presenting certain measures on a constant currency and adjusted constant currency basis. The performance metrics include net annual contract value (or Net ACV) and the non-GAAP measures include free cash flow and others with the words “non-GAAP," "adjusted," or "constant currency" in their titles. The performance metrics are listed and described, and the non-GAAP measures are listed, described, and reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures, under the heading "Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures" later in this release.








Third Quarter 2017 Operating Results

Revenue
Third quarter revenue of $1.66 billion was down 1% year-over-year. Foreign currency fluctuations had no impact on the year-over-year comparison.

Software revenue was up 2% primarily due to continued demand for NCR's channel transformation with increases in software maintenance of 3%, cloud of 5% and professional services of 6%. Software license revenue was down 12% due to a large unattached license in the prior year period and lower software license revenue attached to hardware in the recently completed quarter.

Services revenue was up 3% driven by hardware maintenance and implementation services growth as a result of improving channel transformation trends.

Hardware revenue was down 7% on a constant currency basis due to a 17% decline in ATM revenue and a 24% decline in SCO revenue, partially offset by an 18% increase in POS revenue. The ATM market continues to be challenging due to the timing of large customer rollouts and softness in certain geographic regions. SCO revenue was down due to a strong third quarter in the prior year but we expect it to continue its full year momentum and grow sequentially in the fourth quarter. POS revenue was up due to product replacements and new introductions.

Gross Margin
Third quarter gross margin of $473 million decreased 1% from $477 million. Third quarter gross margin (non-GAAP) of $486 million decreased 1% from $491 million. Gross margin rate was consistent at 28.4%. Gross margin rate (Non-GAAP) was 29.2%, down from 29.3%. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to lower software license revenue and lower ATM and SCO volumes as well as new product introductions, offset by continued focus on productivity improvements in our Services segment.





2



Expenses
Third quarter operating expenses of $273 million decreased from $288 million. Third quarter operating expenses (non-GAAP) of $251 million decreased from $261 million. The decrease in expenses is due to continued focus on expense management including lower employee-related expenses.

Operating Income
Third quarter operating income of $200 million increased 6% from $189 million. Third quarter operating income (non-GAAP) of $235 million increased 2% from $230 million. Operating margin rate was 12.0%, up from 11.3%. Operating margin rate (non-GAAP) was 14.1%, up from 13.7%.

Other (Expense)
Third quarter other (expense) and other (expense) (non-GAAP) of $50 million increased 2% from $49 million.

Income Tax Expense
Third quarter income tax expense remained consistent at $31 million. Third quarter income tax expense (non-GAAP) of $41 million decreased from $44 million in the prior year.

Net Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to NCR
Third quarter net income from continuing operations attributable to NCR of $118 million increased from $107 million. Third quarter net income from continuing operations attributable to NCR (non-GAAP) of $143 million increased from $135 million.

Cash Flow
Third quarter cash provided by operating activities of $133 million decreased from $225 million. Free cash flow was $45 million in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to $153 million in the third quarter of 2016. The decreases were due to higher working capital in the third quarter of 2017, which we expect to improve in the fourth quarter. Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $271 million compared to $369 million in the prior year, and year-to-date free cash flow was $51 million compared to free cash flow of $179 million in the prior year.

2017 Outlook

We are reducing our full year 2017 revenue guidance. We now expect revenue of $6.475 billion to $6.525 billion (previous guidance of $6.63 billion to $6.75 billion), due to a softer than expected ATM market. We anticipate foreign currency to be a favorable impact of $20 million versus our previous guidance of an unfavorable impact of $25 million.

We are also lowering our earnings per share guidance. We now expect GAAP diluted earnings per share to be $1.97 to $2.09 (previous guidance of $2.20 to $2.32) and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to be $3.10 to $3.20 (previous guidance of $3.32 to $3.42). The decrease in earnings per share is due to lower ATM hardware and attached software licenses. The favorable impact of foreign currency on earnings per share is now expected to be $0.06 versus a favorable $0.01 in our previous guidance. For 2016, the actuarial mark-to-market pension adjustment is included in GAAP diluted earnings per share; however, 2017 guidance does not include actuarial mark-to-market pension adjustments, which will be determined in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Additionally, we are lowering our cash flow guidance. We now expect net cash provided by operating activities to be $745 million to $775 million (previous guidance of $805 million and $830 million) and free cash flow to be $440 million to $470 million (previous guidance of $500 million to $525 million). The decrease in the cash flow guidance is due to the impact of lower revenue.

Q4 2017 Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2017, revenue is expected to be $1.74 billion to $1.79 billion, GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be $0.64 to $0.76, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be $0.83 to $0.93. The fourth quarter 2017 guidance includes an expected foreign currency benefit of $40 million for revenue and a $0.08 benefit on earnings per share. For the fourth quarter of 2016, the actuarial mark-to-market pension adjustment is included in GAAP

diluted earnings per share; however, the fourth quarter of 2017 guidance does not include actuarial mark-to-market pension adjustments, which will be determined in the fourth quarter of 2017.

NCR will provide additional information regarding its fourth quarter and full year 2017 guidance during its third quarter earnings conference call and webcast.

Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Performance Metrics. The term “net annual contract value” or “net ACV” for any particular period means NCR’s net bookings for cloud revenue during the period, and is calculated as twelve months of expected subscription revenues under new cloud contracts during such period less twelve months of subscription revenues under cloud contracts that expired or were terminated during such period.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures. While NCR reports its results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, or GAAP, in this release NCR also uses the non-GAAP measures listed and described below.

Diluted EPS (non-GAAP), Gross Margin (non-GAAP), Gross Margin Rate (non-GAAP), Operating Expenses (non-GAAP), Operating Income (non-GAAP), Operating Margin Rate (non-GAAP), Other (Expense) (non-GAAP), Income Tax Expense (non-GAAP), and Net Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to NCR (non-GAAP). NCR’s diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP), gross margin (non-GAAP), gross margin rate (non-GAAP), operating expenses (non-GAAP), operating income (non-GAAP), operating margin rate (non-GAAP), other (expense) (non-GAAP), income tax expense (non-GAAP), and net income from continuing operations attributable to NCR (non-GAAP) are determined by excluding pension mark-to-market adjustments, pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits and other special items, including amortization of acquisition related intangibles, from NCR’s GAAP earnings per share, gross margin, gross margin rate, expenses, income from operations, operating margin rate, other (expense), income tax expense and net income from continuing operations attributable to NCR, respectively. Due to the non-operational nature of these pension and other special items, NCR's management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate year-over-year operating performance. NCR also uses operating income (non-GAAP) and diluted EPS (non-GAAP), to manage and determine the effectiveness of its business managers and as a basis for incentive compensation. NCR believes these measures are useful for investors because they provide a more complete understanding of NCR's underlying operational performance, as well as consistency and comparability with NCR's past reports of financial results.

Free Cash Flow. NCR defines free cash flow as net cash provided by/used in operating activities and cash flow provided by/used in discontinued operations less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, additions to capitalized software, discretionary pension contributions and pension settlements. NCR's management uses free cash flow to assess the financial performance of the Company and believes it is useful for investors because it relates the operating cash flow of the Company to the capital that is spent to continue and improve business operations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash generated after capital expenditures which can be used for, among other things, investment in the Company's existing businesses, strategic acquisitions, strengthening the Company's balance sheet, repurchase of Company stock and repayment of the Company's debt obligations. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since there may be other nondiscretionary expenditures that are not deducted from the measure. Free cash flow does not have a uniform definition under GAAP and, therefore, NCR's definition may differ from other companies' definitions of this measure.

Constant Currency, IPS Divestiture and Adjusted Constant Currency. NCR presents certain financial measures, such as period-over-period revenue growth, on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation by translating prior period results at current period monthly average exchange rates. Due to the overall variability of foreign exchange rates from period to period, NCR’s management uses constant currency measures to evaluate period-over-period operating performance on a more consistent and comparable basis. NCR also presents certain financial measures on an adjusted constant currency basis, which excludes both the effects of foreign currency translation, as described above, and the results of NCR’s Interactive Printer Solutions (IPS) business for the comparable prior period after completion of the sale of the business (which results were previously included in NCR’s Hardware segment). NCR completed the sale of all but the Middle East and Africa assets of its Interactive Printer Solutions (IPS) division to Atlas Holdings LLC on May 27, 2016. NCR’s management believes that presentation of financial measures without these results is more representative of the company's period-over-period operating performance, and provides additional insight into historical and/or future performance, which may be helpful for investors.

NCR's definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly-titled measures reported by other companies and cannot, therefore, be compared with similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, results determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables below or, in the case of quarterly free cash flow, in the body of this release.

Non-GAAP diluted EPS is determined using the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock in the calculation of weighted average diluted shares outstanding. GAAP EPS is determined using the most dilutive measure, either including the impact of dividends or deemed dividends on the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in the calculation of net income or loss available to common stockholders or including the impact of the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock in the calculation of the weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Therefore, GAAP diluted EPS and non-GAAP diluted EPS may not mathematically reconcile.

Except for the adjustments noted herein, this guidance does not include the effects of any future acquisitions/divestitures, restructuring activities, pension mark-to-market adjustments, taxes or other events, which are difficult to predict and which may or may not be significant.

1 October 19, 2017 BILL NUTI, CHAIRMAN & CEO MARK BENJAMIN, PRESIDENT & COO BOB FISHMAN, CFO Q3 2017 EARNINGS CONFERENCE CALL


 
2 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. Comments made during this conference call and in these materials contain forward-looking statements. Statements that describe or relate to NCR's plans, goals, intentions, strategies, or financial outlook, and statements that do not relate to historical or current fact, are examples of forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in these materials include statements about expected improvements in working capital in the fourth quarter; trends in backlog and file value in NCR's Services business; the ATM market and expected softness in demand for ATMs and the reasons therefor; the expected areas of focus for NCR’s Services segment in 2017; momentum and fourth quarter growth in self-checkout revenue; expected capital expenditures for 2017, including with respect to NCR’s new world headquarters; NCR’s full year 2017 financial guidance, 2017 and fourth quarter segment financial guidance, and fourth quarter 2017 financial guidance, and the expected type and magnitude of the non-operational adjustments included in any forward-looking non-GAAP measures; NCR’s solution offerings and their alignment with major market trends and customer demands; NCR’s areas of focus to drive momentum going into 2018; expectations for margin expansion and the drivers of margin expansion; the expected drivers of NCR’s growth; and the prioritization of free cash flow generation and a balanced capital allocation strategy. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and there are a number of important factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from the results contemplated by such forward-looking statements, including those factors listed in Item 1a "Risk Factors" of NCR's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 24, 2017, and those factors detailed from time to time in NCR's other SEC reports. These materials are dated October 19, 2017, and NCR does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. NON-GAAP MEASURES. While NCR reports its results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), comments made during this conference call and in these materials will include or make reference to certain "non-GAAP" measures, including: selected measures, such as period-over-period revenue growth, expressed on a constant currency basis and adjusted constant currency basis, gross margin rate (non-GAAP), operating margin rate (non-GAAP), diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP), free cash flow (FCF), gross margin (non-GAAP), free cash flow as a percentage of non-GAAP net income (or free cash flow conversion rate), net debt, adjusted EBITDA, the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA, operating expenses (non-GAAP), operating income (non-GAAP), interest and other expense (non-GAAP), income tax expense (non-GAAP), income tax rate (non-GAAP), and net income (non-GAAP). These measures are included to provide additional useful information regarding NCR's financial results, and are not a substitute for their comparable GAAP measures. Explanations of these non- GAAP measures, and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their directly comparable GAAP measures, are included in the accompanying "Supplementary Materials" and are available on the Investor Relations page of NCR's website at www.ncr.com. Descriptions of many of these non-GAAP measures are also included in NCR's SEC reports. USE OF CERTAIN TERMS.

21 While NCR reports its results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States, comments made during this conference call and in these materials will include non-GAAP measures. These measures are included to provide additional useful information regarding NCR's financial results, and are not a substitute for their comparable GAAP measures. Operating Income (non-GAAP), Diluted EPS (non-GAAP), Gross Margin (non-GAAP), Gross Margin Rate (non-GAAP), Operating Margin Rate (non-GAAP), Interest and Other expense (non-GAAP), Income Tax Rate (non-GAAP), Net Income (non-GAAP), Operating Expenses (non-GAAP) and Income Tax Expense (non-GAAP). NCR’s operating income (non-GAAP), diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP), gross margin (non-GAAP), gross margin rate (non-GAAP), operating margin rate (non-GAAP), interest and other expense (non-GAAP), income tax rate (non-GAAP), and net income (non-GAAP), operating expenses (non-GAAP) and income tax expense (non-GAAP) are determined by excluding pension mark-to-market adjustments, pension settlements, pension curtailments and pension special termination benefits and other special items, including amortization of acquisition related intangibles, from NCR's GAAP income (loss) from operations, earnings per share, gross margin, gross margin rate, operating margin rate, interest and other expense, effective tax rate net income, operating expenses and income tax expense, respectively. Due to the non-operational nature of these pension and other special items, NCR's management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate year-over-year operating performance. NCR also uses operating income (non-GAAP) and non-GAAP diluted EPS, to manage and determine the effectiveness of its business managers and as a basis for incentive compensation. NCR believes these measures are useful for investors because they provide a more complete understanding of NCR's underlying operational performance, as well as consistency and comparability with NCR's past reports of financial results. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow as a Percentage of Non-GAAP Net Income (or Free Cash Flow Conversion Rate). NCR defines free cash flow as net cash provided by/used in operating activities and cash flow provided by/used in discontinued operations less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, additions to capitalized software, discretionary pension contributions and pension settlements. NCR's management uses free cash flow to assess the financial performance of the Company and believes it is useful for investors because it relates the operating cash flow of the Company to the capital that is spent to continue and improve business operations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash generated after capital expenditures which can be used for, among other things, investment in the Company's existing businesses, strategic acquisitions, strengthening the Company's balance sheet, repurchase of Company stock and repayment of the Company's debt obligations. NCR also describes free cash flow as a percentage of non-GAAP net income (or free cash flow conversion rate), which is calculated as free cash flow divided by non- GAAP net income. NCR’s management targets an annual free cash flow conversion rate at or above the range described in these materials because management believes that a conversion rate at or above that range represents the efficient conversion of non- GAAP net income to free cash flow for its business. Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion rate do not have uniform definitions under GAAP and, therefore, NCR's definitions may differ from other companies' definition of these measures. NON-GAAP MEASURES


 
22 Constant Currency, IPS Divestiture and Adjusted Constant Currency. NCR presents certain financial measures, such as period-over- period revenue growth, on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation by translating prior period results at current period monthly average exchange rates. Due to the overall variability of foreign exchange rates from period to period, NCR’s management uses constant currency measures to evaluate period-over-period operating performance on a more consistent and comparable basis. NCR also presents certain financial measures on an adjusted constant currency basis, which excludes both the effects of foreign currency translation, as described above, and the results of NCR’s Interactive Printer Solutions (IPS) business for the comparable prior period after completion of the sale of the business (which results were previously included in NCR’s Hardware segment). NCR completed the sale of all but the Middle East and Africa assets of its Interactive Printer Solutions (IPS) division to Atlas Holdings LLC on May 27, 2016. NCR’s management believes that presentation of financial measures without these results is more representative of the company's period-over-period operating performance, and provides additional insight into historical and/or future performance, which may be helpful for investors.which the company is able to convert its non-GAAP net income to cash. Net Debt and Adjusted EBITDA. NCR believes that Net Debt provides useful information to investors because NCR’s management reviews Net Debt as part of its management of overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. In addition, certain debt rating agencies, creditors and credit analysts monitor NCR’s Net Debt as part of their assessments of NCR’s business. NCR determines Net Debt based on its total debt less cash and cash equivalents, with total debt being defined as total short-term borrowings plus total long-term debt. NCR believes that Adjusted EBITDA (adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of the Company's ongoing business operations, including its ability to fund discretionary spending such as capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions and other investments. NCR determines Adjusted EBITDA for a given period based on its GAAP income (loss) from continuing operations plus interest expense, net; plus income tax expense (benefit); plus depreciation and amortization; plus other income (expense); plus pension expense (benefit); and plus special items. NCR believes that its ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the company's ability to meet its future financial obligations. NCR believes that its ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the company's ability to meet its future financial obligations. In addition, the Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is measures frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies. The Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing Net Debt by trailing twelve- month Adjusted EBITDA. NCR management's definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly-titled measures reported by other companies and cannot, therefore, be compared with similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for, or superior to, results determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to their corresponding GAAP measures in the following slides and elsewhere in these materials. These reconciliations and other information regarding these non-GAAP measures are also available on the Investor Relations page of NCR's website at www.ncr.com. NON-GAAP MEASURES

Non-GAAP EPS is always determined using the as-if converted preferred shares and shares that would be issued for stock compensation awards. Therefore, GAAP diluted EPS and non-GAAP diluted EPS may be calculated using different methods, and may not mathematically reconcile.
