Note 1: Background
Ingevity Corporation ("Ingevity," "the Company," "we," "us," or "our") is a leading global manufacturer of specialty chemicals and high performance activated carbon materials. We provide innovative solutions to meet our customers’ unique and demanding requirements through proprietary formulated products. We report in two business segments, Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals.
Our Performance Materials segment consists of our automotive technologies and process purifications product lines. Performance Materials manufactures products in the form of powder, granular, extruded pellets, extruded honeycombs, and activated carbon sheets. Automotive technologies products are sold into gasoline vapor emission control applications within the automotive industry, while process purification products are sold into the food, water, beverage, and chemical purification industries.
Our Performance Chemicals segment consists of our pavement technologies, oilfield technologies, industrial specialties, and engineered polymers (acquired in 2019; see Note 4 for more information) product lines. Performance Chemicals manufactures products derived from crude tall oil ("CTO") and lignin extracted from the kraft paper making process as well as caprolactone monomers and derivatives derived from cyclohexanone and hydrogen peroxide. Performance Chemicals products serve as critical inputs used in a variety of high performance applications, including pavement preservation, pavement adhesion promotion, and warm mix paving (pavement technologies product line), oil well service additives, oil production, and downstream application chemicals (oilfield technologies product line), printing inks, adhesives, agrochemicals, lubricants, and industrial intermediates (industrial specialties product line), coatings, resins, elastomers, adhesives, and bio-plastics (engineered polymers product line).
Note 2: Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the consolidated operations of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") interim reporting requirements. Accordingly, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, collectively referred to as the “Annual Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Annual Report").
In the opinion of management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the condensed consolidated results for the interim periods presented. The consolidated results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

Note 3: New Accounting Guidance
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC" or "Codification") is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to communicate changes to the Codification. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." This ASU eliminates, amends, and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We adopted this standard on January 1, 2019. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting." This ASU provides for a single accounting model for all share-based payments, with the employee based guidance now applying to nonemployee share-based transactions. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We adopted this standard on January 1, 2019. The impact of adoption did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases (Topic 842)." Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Since the issuance of ASU 2016-02, the FASB issued several amendments that clarify certain points in Topic 842, including ASU 2018-20 ("Lease (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors"), ASU 2018-01 ("Land Easement Practical Expedient"), ASU 2018-10 ("Codification Improvements"), ASU 2018-11 ("Targeted Improvements") and ASU 2019-01 (“Codification Improvements”). ASU 2016-02 and all subsequent amendments will herein be referred to as ASC 842. We adopted ASC 842 utilizing the modified retrospective approach as of January 1, 2019. The modified retrospective approach we selected provides a method of transition allowing for the recognition of existing leases as of the beginning of the period of adoption (i.e. January 1, 2019), and which does not require the adjustment of comparative periods.
We have elected the practical expedient package upon transition that does not require reassessment of prior conclusions related to contracts containing a lease, lease classification, and initial direct costs for any leases that existed at the period of adoption of ASC 842. We also adopted the practical expedient to apply hindsight in determining the lease term; we chose to account for lease and non-lease components together as a single component for all lease asset classes; and we elected the practical expedient related to land easements allowing us to carry-forward our current accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements. We include the option to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option. In addition, we elected the accounting policy to not apply the balance sheet recognition criteria required in ASC 842 to leases with an initial lease term of twelve months or less by class of underlying asset for all lease asset classes. Payments for these leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As a lessee, most of our leases under prior guidance ASC 840 “Leases” were classified as operating leases, and therefore, were not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet but were recorded as expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as incurred. We cataloged our existing lease contracts and implemented changes to our systems to perform the lease accounting and reporting under the new guidance going forward.
The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of lease assets and liabilities. Our existing capital leases were accounted for as finance leases upon adoption of ASC 842. Additionally, we do not expect a significant impact in the timing of expense recognition based on the classification of leases as either operating or financing.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract." This ASU requires companies to defer specific implementation costs incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement ("CCA") that are often expensed as incurred under current GAAP, and recognize the expense over the noncancellable term of the CCA. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Although we are still evaluating the impact of this new standard, we do not believe that the adoption will materially impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14 "Compensation — Retirement Benefits — Defined Benefit Plans — General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." This ASU amends ASC 715 to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The new standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Although we are still evaluating the impact of this new standard, we do not believe that the adoption will materially impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The update is intended to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Although we are still evaluating the impact of this new standard, we do not believe that the adoption will materially impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Note 4: Acquisitions
Perstorp Holding AB's Caprolactone Business
On December 10, 2018, we entered into an agreement for the sale and purchase of Perstorp UK Ltd. (the “Caprolactone Agreement”) with Perstorp Holding AB, a company registered in Sweden that develops, manufactures, and sells specialty chemicals (the “Seller”). Pursuant to the Caprolactone Agreement, we agreed to purchase the shares held by the Seller in Perstorp UK Ltd., including the Seller’s entire caprolactone business ("Caprolactone Business"), in exchange for €570.9 million, less assumed debt and other miscellaneous transaction costs, as further defined in the Caprolactone Agreement (the “Purchase Price”), plus interest accrued on the Purchase Price (herein referred to as the “Caprolactone Acquisition”).
On February 13, 2019, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Caprolactone Agreement, we completed the Caprolactone Acquisition for an aggregate purchase price of €578.9 million ($652.5 million), less assumed debt of €100.4 million ($113.1 million). At closing, the assumed debt was settled with an affiliate of the Seller. The Caprolactone Acquisition is being integrated into our Performance Chemicals segment and included within our engineered polymers product line. Our revolving credit facility was utilized as the primary source of funds, along with available cash on hand, to fund the Caprolactone Acquisition.
The Caprolactone Acquisition contributed Net sales of $32.4 million and $90.9 million and Income (loss) before income taxes of $5.8 million and $8.1 million, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, to the consolidated operating results of Ingevity.
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The Caprolactone Acquisition is considered an acquisition of a business under business combinations accounting guidance, and therefore we applied acquisition accounting. Acquisition accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The aggregate purchase price noted above was allocated to the major categories of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date using primarily Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. These Level 2 and Level 3 valuation inputs include an estimate of future cash flows and discount rates. Additionally, estimated fair values are based, in part, upon outside appraisals for certain assets, including specifically-identified intangible assets. See Note 6 for additional explanation of Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.
The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill, is based upon preliminary information and is subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as additional information concerning final asset and liability valuations is obtained. The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to uncertain tax positions taken by the entity prior to the acquisition, which are currently being evaluated. During the measurement period, if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in revised estimated values of those assets or liabilities as of that date, we will revise the preliminary purchase price allocation. The effect of measurement period adjustments to the estimated fair values will be reflected as if the adjustments had been completed on the acquisition date. The impact of all changes that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments will be included in current period earnings.

_______________
(1)    Fair value of finished good inventories acquired included a step-up in the value of approximately $8.4 million, all of which was expensed in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The expense is included in "Cost of sales" on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Inventories are accounted for on a first-in, first-out basis of accounting.
(2)    The aggregate amortization expense was $3.7 million and $9.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Estimated amortization expense is as follows: 2019 - $14.1 million, 2020 - $18.5 million, 2021 - $18.5 million, 2022 - $18.4 million and 2023 - $18.4 million. The estimated pre-tax amortization expense may fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency.
(3)    Goodwill consists of estimated future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. See Note 9 for further information regarding our allocation of goodwill among our reportable segments. None of the acquired goodwill will be deductible for income tax purposes.
(4)    Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, at closing. Restricted cash is included in "Prepaid and other current assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
(5)    Since the closing, we completed a full physical asset inspection and assessment of the property, plant and equipment acquired. We identified $2.5 million of assets, which were included in the original valuation that were no longer in use. Reducing the asset value also required a reduction of the previously established deferred tax liability by $0.4 million. The net adjustment resulted in an increase to Goodwill of $2.1 million. Since the acquisition, we obtained all outstanding lease contracts for the Caprolactone Business, and completed our assessment of the leases under ASC 842. The result was the identification of operating lease assets, current lease liabilities, and noncurrent lease liabilities at the date of acquisition in the amounts of $1.8 million, $0.1 million, and $1.7 million, respectively.

Georgia Pacific's Pine Chemical Business
On March 8, 2018, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the asset purchase agreement with Georgia-Pacific Chemicals LLC, Georgia-Pacific LLC (together with Georgia-Pacific Chemicals LLC, "GP") and Ingevity Arkansas, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ingevity, we completed the acquisition (the "Pine Chemical Acquisition") of substantially all the assets primarily used in GP's pine chemical business (the "Pine Chemical Business") for an aggregate purchase price of $315.5 million. The aggregate purchase price was finalized during the third quarter of 2018 with a final payment to GP in the amount of $0.5 million to finalize the net working capital acquired on March 8, 2018. The Pine Chemical Business included the assets and facilities related to tall oil fractionation operations and the production or modification of tall oil fatty acids, tall oil rosins, rosin derivatives and formulated products. In addition, on March 8, 2018, we entered into a 20-year, market-based CTO supply contract with certain of GP’s paper mill operations.
The Pine Chemical Business was integrated into our Performance Chemicals segment and has been included within our results of operations since March 8, 2018. Although the integration was not complete, a substantial portion of the Pine Chemical Business was integrated into our existing Performance Chemicals operations as of September 30, 2018. As a result, we were no longer able to separate net sales and operating performance of the Pine Chemical Acquisition from our existing Performance Chemicals' operating results.

The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers. The contract assets primarily relate to our rights to consideration for products produced but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with certain customers. The contract assets are recognized as accounts receivables when the rights become unconditional and the customer has been billed. Contract liabilities represent obligations to transfer goods to a customer for which we have received consideration from our customer. For all periods presented we had no contract liabilities.

Note 6: Financial Instruments, Risk Management, and Fair Value Measurements
Net Investment Hedges
Net investment hedges are defined as derivative or non-derivative instruments designated as and used to hedge the foreign currency exposure of the net investment in certain foreign operations. The net of the change in the hedge instrument and the item being hedged against for qualifying net investment hedges is reported as a component of the foreign currency adjustments ("CTA") within Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The gains (losses) on net investment hedges are reclassified to earnings only when the related CTA are required to be reclassified, usually upon sale or liquidation of the investment. 
During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into a fixed-to-fixed cross-currency interest rate swap with a notional amount of $141.3 million and a maturity date of July 2023. We designated the swap to hedge a portion of our net investment in a euro functional currency denominated subsidiary against foreign currency fluctuations. This contract involves the exchange of fixed U.S. dollars with fixed euro interest payments periodically over the life of the contract and an exchange of the notional amount at maturity. This effectively converts a portion of our U.S. dollar denominated fixed-rate debt from a rate of 3.96 percent to euro denominated fixed-rate debt at a rate of 1.41 percent. Any difference between the fixed interest rate between the U.S. dollar denominated debt to euro denominated debt is recorded to as interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the fixed-to-fixed cross currency interest rate swap was an asset (liability) of $6.6 million at September 30, 2019. During the three and nine months ending September 30, 2019 we recognized net interest income associated with this financial instrument of $0.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk Management
We manufacture and sell our products in several countries throughout the world and, thus, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, we net the exposures on a consolidated basis to take advantage of natural offsets. To manage the remaining exposure, from time to time, we utilize forward currency exchange contracts and zero cost collar option contracts to minimize the volatility to earnings and cash flows resulting from the effect of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates on export sales denominated in foreign currencies (principally the euro). These contracts are generally designated as cash flow hedges. Designated cash flow hedges entered to minimize foreign currency exchange risk of forecasted revenue transactions are recorded to "Net sales" on the consolidated statement of operations when the forecasted transaction occurs. As of September 30, 2019, there were no open foreign currency derivative contracts. The fair value of the designated foreign currency hedge contracts was an asset (liability) of zero and $0.2 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Commodity Price Risk Management
Certain energy sources used in our manufacturing operations are subject to price volatility caused by weather, supply and demand conditions, economic variables, and other unpredictable factors. This volatility is primarily related to the market pricing of natural gas. To mitigate expected fluctuations in market prices and the volatility to earnings and cash flow resulting from changes to pricing of natural gas purchases, from time to time, we will enter into swap contracts and zero cost collar option contracts and designate these contracts as cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2019, we had 1.3 million and 0.3 million mmBTUS (millions of British Thermal Units) in aggregate notional volume of outstanding natural gas commodity swap contracts and zero cost collar

15


Ingevity Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2019
(Unaudited)


option contracts, respectively. Designated commodity cash flow hedge gains or losses recorded in AOCI are recognized in "Cost of sales" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations when the inventory is sold. As of September 30, 2019, open commodity contracts hedge forecasted transactions until September 2020. The fair value of the outstanding designated natural gas commodity hedge contracts as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was an asset (liability) of $(0.4) million and zero, respectively.
Interest Rate Risk Management 
Our policy is to manage interest expense using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. To manage interest rate risk effectively, from time to time, we may enter into cash flow interest rate derivative instruments, which can consist of forward starting swaps and treasury locks. In all cases, the notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements is equal to or less than the designated debt being hedged. Designated interest rate cash flow hedge gains or losses recorded in AOCI are recognized in "Interest expense, net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining maturity of the underlying debt. These instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. 
During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $141.3 million to manage the variability of cash flows in the interest rate payments associated with our existing LIBOR-based interest payments, effectively converting $141.3 million of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate. In accordance with the terms of this instrument we receive floating rate interest payments based upon three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR and in return are obligated to pay interest at a fixed rate of 3.96% until July 2023. The fair value of the interest rate swap was an asset (liability) of $(5.0) million at September 30, 2019.

Fair-Value Measurements
We have categorized our assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair-value hierarchy. The fair-value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the assets and liabilities fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair-value measurement of the instrument. The carrying value of our financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, other payables and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Recurring Fair-Value Measurements
The following information is presented for assets and liabilities that are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value measured on a recurring basis. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and are presented on a gross basis. There were no transfers of assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value between Level 1 and Level 2 during the periods reported. There were no non-recurring fair value measurements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

Equity Securities
Our investments in equity securities with a readily determinable fair value totaled $0.4 million at both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The net realized gain/(loss) recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was zero. The unrealized gain/(loss) was zero for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and the unrealized gain/(loss) was zero and $(0.1) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The aggregate carrying value of investments in equity securities where fair value is not readily determinable totaled $1.5 million as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. There were no adjustments to the carrying value of the not readily determinable investments for impairment or observable price changes for the period ended September 30, 2019.
Restricted Investment
At September 30, 2019, the book value of our restricted investment, which is accounted for as held to maturity and therefore held at amortized costs, was $72.7 million, and the fair value was $74.6 million, based on Level 1 inputs.
Debt Obligations
At September 30, 2019, the book value of finance lease obligations was $80.0 million and the fair value was $102.7 million. The fair value of our finance lease obligations is based on the period-end quoted market prices for the obligations, using Level 2 inputs.
The carrying amount, excluding debt issuance fees, of our variable interest rate long-term debt was $944.2 million as of September 30, 2019. The carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the outstanding debt based on the variable interest rate of the debt.
At September 30, 2019, the book value of our fixed rate debt was $300.0 million, and the fair value was $300.9 million, based on Level 2 inputs.

Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facility Amendment
On March 7, 2019, we entered into an Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment No. 3") and an Incremental Facility Agreement and Amendment No. 4 (the “Amendment No. 4”, together with Amendment No. 3, the “Amendments”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, including pursuant to the Incremental Facility Agreement and Amendment No. 1, dated as of August 21, 2017 and the Incremental Facility Agreement and Amendment No. 2, dated as of August 7, 2018, the “Existing Credit Agreement”, and as amended by the Amendments, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). Among other things, the Amendments established a new class of incremental term loan commitments in the aggregate principal amount of $375.0 million (the incremental term loans made pursuant thereto, the “Incremental Term A-1 Loans”).
The Incremental Term A-1 Loans, bear interest at either (a) an adjusted base rate or (b) an adjusted LIBOR rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin (the “Applicable Margin”), in the case of base rate loans, ranging between zero and 0.25 percent, and in the case of adjusted LIBOR rate loans, ranging between 0.75 percent and 1.25 percent. The Applicable Margin is based on a total leverage based pricing grid.
As consideration for Amendment No. 3, the Company paid to each lender party thereto a consent fee equal to 0.05 percent of the aggregate principal amount of the commitments and outstanding loans under the Existing Credit Agreement held by such lender immediately prior to the Closing Date. Fees of $1.8 million were incurred to secure the Amended Credit Agreement. These fees have been deferred and will be amortized over the term of the arrangement.
The Incremental Term A-1 Loans are not subject to amortization; the full principal balance is due and payable at maturity on August 7, 2022. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default.
The Company used the proceeds of the Incremental Term A-1 Loans to repay loans outstanding under its revolving credit facility.

Debt Covenants
Our 4.50 percent senior unsecured notes due in 2026 (the "Senior Notes") contain certain customary covenants (including covenants limiting Ingevity's and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to grant or permit liens on certain property securing debt, declare or pay dividends, make distributions on or repurchase or redeem capital stock, make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries, engage in sale and lease-back transactions, and engage in a consolidation or merger, or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of our and our restricted subsidiaries, taken as a whole) and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary exceptions, as well as grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the Senior Notes could result in the acceleration of the Senior Notes and could cause a cross-default that could result in the acceleration of other indebtedness of Ingevity and its subsidiaries.
The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facilities contain customary default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, non-compliance with covenants and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness. The occurrence of an uncured event of default under the Revolving Credit Facilities and Term Loan Facilities could result in all loans and other obligations becoming immediately due and payable and the facilities being terminated. The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facilities' financial covenants require Ingevity to maintain on a consolidated basis a maximum total leverage ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 (which may be increased to 4.5 to 1.0 under certain circumstances) and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Our actual leverage for the four consecutive quarters ended September 30, 2019 was 3.1, and our actual interest coverage for the four consecutive quarters ended September 30, 2019 was 9.2. We were in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2019.

Noncontrolling interest acquisition
On August 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 30 percent noncontrolling interest in Purification Cellutions LLC, which was treated as a partnership for tax purposes, for a purchase price of $80.0 million. The acquisition resulted in the elimination of Noncontrolling interest of $11.4 million and the recognition of a Deferred tax asset of $14.3 million, with the remainder being recorded against Additional paid in capital of $54.3 million in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Share Repurchases
On February 20, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our common stock. In addition, on November 1, 2018, the Board of Directors approved the authorization for the repurchase of up to an additional $350.0 million of Ingevity’s outstanding common stock. The repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its evaluation of market prevailing conditions and other factors.
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, 40,300 shares of our common stock were repurchased. At September 30, 2019$389.5 million remained unused under our Board-authorized repurchase program. We record shares of common stock repurchased at cost as treasury stock, resulting in a reduction of stockholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. When the treasury shares are contributed under our employee benefit plans or issued for option exercises, we use a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method for determining cost. The difference between the cost of the shares and the market price at

2019 activities
During the third quarter of 2019, we initiated a reorganization as part of an effort to improve our Performance Chemical’s workflow and efficiency to best serve our customers’ needs and reduce costs. As a result of this reorganization, we recorded $1.7 million in severance and other employee-related costs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

In April 2019, we sold assets from the Performance Chemicals derivatives operations in Palmeira, Brazil. These assets were part of a facility that was closed as a result of a restructuring event in 2016. As a result of this sale, we recorded $0.4 million as a gain on sale of assets, as well as $0.7 million related to other miscellaneous exit costs, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

2018 activities
In February 2018, we sold assets from the Performance Chemicals derivatives operations in Duque De Caxias, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. These assets were part of a facility that was closed as a result of a restructuring event in 2016. As a result of this sale, we recorded $0.6 million as a gain on sale of assets in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Note 14: Income Taxes

We determine our interim tax provision using an Estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate methodology (“EAETR”). The EAETR is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income, exclusive of discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are then included to arrive at the total reported interim tax provision.

30


Ingevity Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2019
(Unaudited)


The determination of the EAETR is based upon a number of estimates, including the estimated annual pre-tax ordinary income in each tax jurisdiction in which we operate. As our projections of ordinary income change throughout the year, the EAETR will change period-to-period. The tax effects of discrete items are recognized in the tax provision in the period they occur. Depending on various factors, such as the item’s significance in relation to total income and the rate of tax applicable in the jurisdiction to which it relates, discrete items in any quarter may materially impact the reported effective tax rate. As a global enterprise, our tax expense may be impacted by changes in tax rates or laws, the finalization of tax audits and reviews, as well as other factors. As such, there may be significant volatility in interim tax provisions.
The below table provides a reconciliation between our reported effective tax rates and the EAETR.

Decrease in EAETR for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to September 30, 2018, is due to a change in the mix of forecasted earnings in various tax jurisdictions with varying rates. The increase in EAETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to September 30, 2018, is driven primarily by the 30 percent acquisition of our noncontrolling interest in Purifications Cellutions, LLC. ("PurCell") on August 1, 2018. PurCell, prior to the acquisition, was a limited liability company and was treated as a "pass-through" entity for tax purposes. Although we consolidated 100 percent of PurCell, only 70 percent of PurCell's earnings were included in the calculation of Ingevity's provision for income taxes as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Post-acquisition, 100 percent of the earnings of the entity are now included in the tax calculation, which when combined with the change in forecasted earnings in various tax jurisdictions with varying tax rates resulted in a slight increase to our effective tax rate.

Ingevity Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2019
(Unaudited)


At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had deferred tax assets of $13.1 million and $15.5 million, respectively, resulting from certain historical net operating losses from our Brazilian and Chinese operations for which a full valuation allowance has been established. The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which these net operating losses are available to be used. In evaluating the realizability of these deferred tax assets, we consider projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making our assessment. As of September 30, 2019, we cannot objectively assert that these deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized and therefore we have maintained a full valuation allowance. We intend to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances. Specific to our Chinese operations, it is reasonably possible that a portion of our Chinese valuation allowance of $1.0 million at September 30, 2019, could be reversed within the next 12 months due to increased profitability levels. A release of all or a portion of the valuation allowance could be possible, if we determine that sufficient positive evidence becomes available to allow us to reach a conclusion that the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. A release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a reduction to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change based on the level of profitability that we are able to actually achieve.
Note 15: Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings
We are from time to time, involved in routine litigation and other legal matters incidental to our operations. None of the litigation or other legal matters in which we are currently involved, individually or in the aggregate, is material to our consolidated financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations nor are we aware of any material pending or contemplated proceedings.

Note 16: Leases
Operating Leases
We lease a variety of assets for use in our operations that are classified as operating leases. At contract inception, we determine that a lease exists if the contract conveys the right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is considered to exist when the lessee has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset as well as the right to direct the use of that asset. If a contract is considered to be a lease, we recognize a lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments, with an offsetting entry to recognize a right-of-use asset. As a majority of our leases do not provide an implicit rate within the lease, an incremental borrowing rate is used which is based on information available at the commencement date. Upon adoption of ASC 842, we used the incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019, for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. The determination of the incremental borrowing rate for each individual lease was impacted by the following assumptions: lease term, currency, and the economic environment for the physical location of the leased asset.
Our operating leases principally relate to the following leased asset classes:
Leased Asset Class
 
Expected Lease Term
Administrative offices
 
1 to 10 years
Manufacturing buildings
 
10 to 28 years
Manufacturing and office equipment
 
2 to 6 years
Warehousing and storage facilities
 
2 to 10 years
Vehicles
 
3 to 6 years
Rail cars
 
2 to 8 years

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Some of our leases include options to extend the lease term at our sole discretion. We account for lease and non-lease components together as a single component for all lease asset classes. The depreciable life of

32


Ingevity Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Certain leases provide for escalation of the lease payments, as well as maintenance costs and taxes increase.
Finance leases
Our finance lease obligations consist of $80.0 million at September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, owed to the city of Wickliffe, Kentucky, associated with Performance Materials' Wickliffe, Kentucky manufacturing site, which is due at maturity in 2027. The interest rate on the $80.0 million finance lease obligation is 7.67%. Interest payments are payable semi-annually.
We have a finance lease obligation due in 2031 for certain assets located at our Performance Materials' Waynesboro, Georgia manufacturing facility. The lease is with the Development Authority of Burke County (“Authority”). The Authority established the sale-leaseback of these assets by issuing an industrial development revenue bond. The bond was purchased by Ingevity and the obligations under the finance lease remain with Ingevity. Accordingly, we offset the finance lease obligation and bond on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Segment EBITDA is the primary measure used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources among our operating segments. Segment EBITDA is defined as segment revenue less segment operating expenses (segment operating expenses consist of costs of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, other (income) expense, net, excluding depreciation and amortization). We have excluded the following items from segment EBITDA: interest expense associated with corporate debt facilities, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring and other (income) charges, acquisition and other related costs, pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charge.
(3)
Income (charges) for all periods presented relate to our Performance Chemicals segment.

Charges associated with the acquisition and integration of the Caprolactone Business and Pine Chemical Business. For more detail on the charges incurred see Note 4 within these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Note 18: Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted net income per share excludes all antidilutive common shares.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Introduction
Management’s discussion and analysis of Ingevity’s financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) is provided as a supplement to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere herein to help provide an understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of our operations.
Cautionary Statements About Forward-Looking Statements
This section and other parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect our current expectations, beliefs, plans or forecasts with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often characterized by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “target,” “prospects,” “potential” and “forecast,” and other words, terms and phrases of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, forecasts, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. We caution readers that a forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, those discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Annual Report") as well as in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes, and the other information appearing elsewhere in this report and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any of our forward-looking statements after the date of this report to reflect actual results or future events or circumstances. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. In addition to any such risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed elsewhere herein, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause or contribute to actual results differing materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the following:
we are exposed to risks that the expected benefits from the acquisitions of Georgia Pacific's pine chemicals business ("Pine Chemical Acquisition") and of Perstorp Holding AB's caprolactone business ("Caprolactone Acquisition") may not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period, the risk that the acquired businesses will not be integrated successfully, the risk of significant transaction costs and unknown or understated liabilities;
we may be adversely affected by general economic and financial conditions beyond our control;
we are exposed to risks related to our international sales and operations;
our reported results could be adversely affected by currency exchange rates and currency devaluation could impair our competitiveness;

from time to time we are called upon to protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary information though litigation and other means;
if we are unable to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary information we may lose significant competitive advantage;
information technology security breaches and other disruptions;
government policies and regulations, including, but not limited to, those affecting the environment, climate change, tariffs, tax policies and the chemicals industry; and
losses due to lawsuits arising out of environmental damage or personal injuries associated with chemical or other manufacturing processes.

Overview
Ingevity is a leading global manufacturer of specialty chemicals and high performance activated carbon materials. We provide innovative solutions to meet our customers’ unique and demanding requirements through proprietary formulated products. We report in two business segments, Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals.
Our Performance Materials segment consists of our automotive technologies and process purifications product lines. Performance Materials manufactures products in the form of powder, granular, extruded pellets, extruded honeycombs, and activated carbon sheets. Automotive technologies products are sold into gasoline vapor emission control applications within the automotive industry, while process purification products are sold into the food, water, beverage, and chemical purification industries.
     Our Performance Chemicals segment consists of our pavement technologies, oilfield technologies, industrial specialties, and engineered polymers product lines. Performance Chemicals manufactures products derived from CTO and lignin extracted from the kraft paper making process as well as caprolactone monomers and derivatives derived from cyclohexanone and hydrogen peroxide. Performance Chemicals products serve as critical inputs used in a variety of high performance applications, including pavement preservation, pavement adhesion promotion, and warm mix paving (pavement technologies product line), oil well service additives, oil production, and downstream application chemicals (oilfield technologies product line), printing inks, adhesives, agrochemicals, lubricants, and industrial intermediates (industrial specialties product line), coatings, resins, elastomers, adhesives, and bio-plastics (engineered polymers product line).

Recent Developments
Perstorp Holding AB's Caprolactone Business
On December 10, 2018, we entered into an agreement for the sale and purchase of Perstorp UK Ltd. (the “Caprolactone Agreement”) with Perstorp Holding AB, a company registered in Sweden that develops, manufactures, and sells specialty chemicals (the “Seller”). Pursuant to the Caprolactone Agreement, we agreed to purchase the shares held by the Seller in Perstorp UK Ltd., including the Seller’s entire caprolactone business (the "Caprolactone Business"), in exchange for €570.9 million, less assumed debt and other miscellaneous transaction costs, as further defined in the Caprolactone Agreement (the “Purchase Price”), plus interest accrued on the Purchase Price (herein referred to as the “Caprolactone Acquisition”).
On February 13, 2019, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Caprolactone Agreement, we completed the Caprolactone Acquisition for an aggregate purchase price of €578.9 million ($652.5 million), less assumed debt of €100.4 million ($113.1 million). At closing, the assumed debt was settled with an affiliate of the Seller. The Caprolactone Acquisition is integrated into our Performance Chemicals segment and included within our engineered polymers product line. Our revolving credit facility was utilized as the primary source of funds, along with available cash on hand, to fund the Caprolactone Acquisition. See Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Net sales increase of $48.7 million in 2019 was primarily driven by favorable volume gains of $40.7 million (13 percent of sales) and favorable pricing and product mix of $9.5 million (three percent of sales). Both of our operating segments contributed to the volume and pricing and product mix impacts during the quarter. The Caprolactone Acquisition, completed in the first quarter of this year, contributed $32.4 million to the favorable volume growth during the period. Additionally, unfavorable foreign currency exchange impacted Net sales by $1.5 million (zero percent of sales), primarily related to euro and Chinese renminbi denominated sales. For additional information regarding the impact of the Caprolactone Acquisition for the three months ended September 30, 2019, see Performance Chemicals included within this MD&A.
Gross profit improvement of $20.9 million was driven by favorable sales volume contributing $23.6 million of additional gross profit and pricing and product mix improvement of $9.3 million. These positive impacts were offset by increased manufacturing costs of $11.1 million and unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $0.9 million. Refer to the Segment Operating Results section included within this MD&A for more information on the drivers to the changes in gross profit period over period for both segments.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Net sales increase of $134.5 million in 2019 was primarily driven by favorable volume gains of $107.6 million (13 percent of sales) and favorable pricing and product mix of $33.8 million (four percent of sales). Both of our operating segments contributed to the volume and pricing and product mix impacts during the period. The Caprolactone Acquisition contributed $90.9 million to the favorable volume growth during the period. Additionally, unfavorable foreign currency exchange impacted Net sales by $6.9 million (one percent of sales), primarily related to euro and Chinese renminbi denominated sales. For additional information regarding the impact of the Caprolactone Acquisition for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, see Performance Chemicals included within this MD&A.
Gross profit improvement of $51.8 million was driven by favorable sales volume contributing $56.4 million of additional gross profit and pricing and product mix improvement of $36.1 million, partially offset by increased manufacturing costs of $30.5 million and $7.0 million of net inventory step-up amortization related to the Caprolactone Acquisition in the current year less the Pine Chemical Acquisition in 2018 (see Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information). Unfavorable foreign currency exchange negatively impacted gross profit by $3.2 million. Refer to the Segment Operating Results section included within this MD&A for more information on the drivers to the changes in gross profit period over period for each segment.

41


Selling, general and administrative expenses
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") increased $6.2 million in 2019 compared to 2018. SG&A expenses as a percentage of Net sales increased to 11.3 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from 11.1 percent in 2018.  The increase in SG&A is primarily due to $3.7 million of amortization associated with intangible assets acquired as a result of the Caprolactone Acquisition (see Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information) and increased legal costs associated with our Performance Materials' intellectual property litigation of $3.5 million, which were offset slightly by lower employee related costs.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
SG&A increased $25.8 million in 2019 compared to 2018. SG&A expenses as a percentage of Net sales increased to 12.4 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from 11.3 percent in 2018. The increase in SG&A is primarily due to $11.6 million of amortization associated with intangible assets acquired as a result of the Caprolactone Acquisition and Pine Chemical Acquisition (see Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information). The remaining increase is related to increased spending associated with the Engineered Polymers product line, company-wide growth, and increased legal costs associated with our Performance Materials' intellectual property litigation of $8.4 million.
Research and technical expenses
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Research and technical expenses as a percentage of Net sales remained relatively consistent period over period, decreasing to 1.4 percent from 1.8 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Research and technical expenses as a percentage of Net sales remained relatively consistent period over period, decreasing to 1.5 percent from 1.9 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Restructuring and other (income) charges, net
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Restructuring and other (income) charges, net were $1.7 million and $2.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and zero and $(0.6) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
In September 2019, we initiated a reorganization as part of an effort to improve our Performance Chemicals segment's workflow and efficiency to best serve our customers’ needs and reduce costs. As a result of this reorganization, we recorded $1.7 million in severance and other employee-related costs in the three months ended September 30, 2019.

In April 2019, we sold assets from the Performance Chemicals derivatives operations in Palmeira, Brazil. These assets were part of a facility that was closed as a result of a restructuring event in 2016. As a result of this sale, we recorded $0.4 million as a gain on sale of assets, which was offset by a $0.7 million charge related to other miscellaneous exit costs.

In February 2018, we sold assets from the Performance Chemicals derivatives operations in Duque De Caxias, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. These assets were part of a facility that was closed as a result of a restructuring event in 2016. As a result of this sale, we recorded $0.6 million as a gain on sale of assets in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Acquisition-related costs
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Acquisition-related costs of $1.3 million and zero for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were incurred in connection with the Caprolactone Acquisition. See Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Acquisition-related costs of $24.9 million and $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were incurred in connection with the the Caprolactone Acquisition and Pine Chemical Acquisition. See Note 4 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Our effective tax rate was 22.6 percent and 24.1 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Excluding discrete items, the effective rate was 22.6 percent compared to 24.4 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the drivers to the change in the effective tax rate.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Our effective tax rate was 19.3 percent and 21.6 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Excluding discrete items, the effective rate was 22.3 percent compared to 21.9 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in EAETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to September 30, 2018, is driven primarily by the 30 percent acquisition of our noncontrolling interest in Purifications Cellutions, LLC. ("PurCell") on August 1, 2018. PurCell, prior to the acquisition, was a limited liability company and was treated as a "pass-through" entity for tax purposes. Although we consolidated 100 percent of PurCell, only 70 percent of PurCell's earnings were included in the calculation of Ingevity's provision for income taxes as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Post-acquisition, 100 percent of the earnings of the entity are now included in the tax calculation which when combined with other factors including the impact of U.S. Tax Reform resulted in a slight increase to our effective tax rate.See Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the drivers to the change in the effective tax rate.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest was zero and $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and was zero and $12.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Prior to August 1, 2018, our noncontrolling interest represented the 30 percent ownership interest held by a third-party U.S.-based company in our consolidated Purification Cellutions LLC legal entity. Purification Cellutions LLC manufactures our structured honeycomb products within our Performance Materials segment. Refer to the Performance Materials’ operating profit discussion below within the Segment Operating Results section for further discussion of the segment’s performance. On August 1, 2018 we purchased the remaining 30 percent interest in Purification Cellutions LLC, see Note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders increased $10.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 versus 2018, primarily driven by higher gross profit of $20.9 million and our purchase of our remaining noncontrolling interest in the third quarter of 2018 which contributed to an year over year increase of $2.2 million. This was partially offset by increased interest expense of $4.2 million, higher SG&A costs of $6.2 million, and increase in the provision for income taxes of $1.1 million on the higher earnings. Refer to the Results of Operations for additional details on the drivers to the individual financial statement captions as well as the Segment Operating Results section for a discussion of changes in segment performance both of which are included within this MD&A.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders increased $12.4 million in nine months ended September 30, 2019 versus 2018, primarily driven by higher gross profit of $51.8 million, our purchase of our remaining noncontrolling interest in the third quarter of 2018 which contributed to an year over year increase of $12.7 million and a reduction in our income tax provision of $5.1 million as a result of discrete tax benefits recognized in 2019. This was partially offset by increased interest expense of $14.5 million, higher SG&A costs of $25.8 million, and increased acquisition-related costs of $20.6 million related to the Caprolactone Acquisition. Refer to the Results of Operations for additional details on the drivers to the individual financial statement captions as well as the Segment Operating Results section for a discussion of changes in segment performance both of which are included within this MD&A.
Segment Operating Results
In addition to the information discussed above, the following sections discuss the results of operations for each of Ingevity's segments. Our segments are (i) Performance Materials and (ii) Performance Chemicals. Segment Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") is the primary measure used by the Company's chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources among our operating segments. Segment EBITDA is defined as segment revenue less segment operating expenses (segment operating expenses consist of costs of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, other (income) expense, net, excluding depreciation and amortization). We have excluded the following items from segment EBITDA: interest expense associated with corporate debt facilities, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring and other (income) charges, acquisition and other related costs, pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charge.
In general, the accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2018 Annual Report.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Segment net sales for the Performance Materials segment were $130.2 million and $96.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The sales increase in 2019 was primarily driven by $28.2 million (29 percent of sales) in volume improvements in automotive evaporative emission canister products related to stricter environmental regulation in the Chinese, North American, and European automotive markets. These gains were further bolstered by favorable pricing and product mix of $6.3 million (seven percent of sales), partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange $0.6 million (one percent of sales).
Segment EBITDA for the Performance Materials segment was $54.2 million and $41.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Segment EBITDA increased $12.6 million primarily due to favorable volume in the automotive carbon application, which contributed $17.6 million and favorable pricing and product mix, which contributed $5.0 million. These gains were partially offset by increased manufacturing costs of $5.3 million and increased SG&A and research and technical costs of $5.2 million, primarily due to increased intellectual property litigation costs of $3.5 million with the remainder representing increased spending associated with growth. Favorable foreign currency exchange and other miscellaneous income also impacted Segment EBITDA by $0.5 million.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Segment net sales for the Performance Materials segment were $362.4 million and $287.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The sales increase in 2019 was primarily driven by $60.8 million (21 percent of sales) in volume improvements in automotive evaporative emission canister products related to stricter environmental regulation in the Chinese, North American, and European automotive markets. These gains were further bolstered by favorable pricing and product mix of $16.3 million (six percent of sales), partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange $2.6 million (one percent of sales).
Segment EBITDA for the Performance Materials segment was $154.7 million and $126.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Segment EBITDA increased $28.2 million primarily due to favorable volume in the automotive carbon application, which contributed $36.9 million and favorable pricing and product mix, which contributed $16.7 million. These gains were partially offset by increased manufacturing costs of $12.2 million and increased SG&A and research and technical costs of $13.7 million, primarily due to increased intellectual property litigation costs of $8.4 million legal

Pro Forma Combined Results - Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Pro Forma Combined Net Sales for the Performance Chemicals segment were $229.7 million and $257.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Pro Forma Combined Net Sales decrease was driven by unfavorable volume of $30.4 million (12 percent of sales), which consisted of unfavorable volumes in industrial specialties ($12.1 million), engineered polymers ($10.5 million), pavement technologies ($3.4 million) and oilfield technologies ($4.4 million). The decrease in volume was partially offset by improved pricing and product mix of $3.3 million (one percent of sales), driven by favorable price and product mix in pavement technologies ($5.3 million), partially offset by declines in industrial specialties ($1.6 million) and oilfield technologies ($0.4 million). Additionally, unfavorable foreign currency exchange impacted Pro Forma Combined Net Sales by $1.1 million (zero percent of sales).
Pro Forma Combined Segment EBITDA for the Performance Chemicals segment was $59.8 million and $65.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Pro Forma Combined Segment EBITDA decreased by $6.0 million primarily due to decreased volumes of $14.3 million and increased manufacturing, freight and warehousing costs of $1.7 million, offset by favorable pricing and product mix of $4.3 million and $5.8 million of favorable SG&A costs. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange and other miscellaneous income also impacted Pro Forma Combined Segment EBITDA by $0.1 million.
Pro Forma Combined Results - Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
Pro Forma Combined Net Sales for the Performance Chemicals segment were $644.8 million and $718.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Pro Forma Combined Net Sales decrease was driven by unfavorable volume of $86.6 million (12 percent of sales), which consisted of unfavorable volumes in industrial specialties ($56.0 million), engineered polymers ($22.3 million), pavement technologies ($5.8 million), and oilfield technologies ($2.5 million). The decrease in volume was partially offset by improved pricing and product mix of $17.5 million (two percent of sales), driven by favorable price and product mix in industrial specialties ($9.5 million), oilfield technologies ($0.8 million), and pavement technologies ($7.2 million). Additionally, unfavorable foreign currency exchange impact Pro Forma Combined Sales by $4.3 million (zero percent of sales).
Pro Forma Combined Segment EBITDA for the Performance Chemicals segment was $156.6 million and $171.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Pro Forma Combined Segment EBITDA decreased by $15.2 million primarily due to decreased volumes of $38.0 million and $6.5 million of increased manufacturing, freight and warehousing costs. These declines were partially offset by favorable pricing and product mix of $19.4 million, $8.1 million of favorable SG&A costs, and $1.8 million due to favorable unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and other miscellaneous income.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure - Adjusted EBITDA
Ingevity has presented the financial measure, Adjusted EBITDA, defined below, which has not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and has provided a reconciliation to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is utilized by management as a measure of profitability.

50


We believe this non-GAAP financial measure provides management as well as investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate the performance of the business, because such measure, when viewed together with our financial results computed in accordance with GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our historical financial performance and projected future results. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure because it excludes the effects of investment activities as well as non-operating activities.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) plus provision (benefit) for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation, amortization, restructuring and other (income) charges, net, acquisition and other related costs, and pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges.
This non-GAAP measure is not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with GAAP and investors should consider the limitations associated with these non-GAAP measures, including the potential lack of comparability of these measures from one company to another. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income is set forth within this section.

Adjusted EBITDA
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 vs. 2018
The factors that impacted adjusted EBITDA period to period are the same factors that affected earnings discussed in the Results of Operations and Segment Operating Results sections included within this MD&A.

Total Company Outlook and Fiscal Year 2019 Guidance
For revenue, favorable volume in Performance Materials driven by continued regulatory changes and favorable volume in Performance Chemicals pavement technologies driven by continued chemistry adoption and global growth are expected to be partially offset by lower volume in Performance Chemicals industrial specialties applications as we continue to focus on improving price and mix in those product lines. We expect flat volumes in Performance Chemicals oilfield technologies and are assuming that the price of oil remains stable for West Texas Intermediate during 2019.  Adding in the Caprolactone Acquisition as of February

51


13, 2019, we expect to deliver fiscal year 2019 Net Sales of $1.28 billion to $1.30 billion, up 14 percent at the midpoint versus 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to grow by 22 percent to 25 percent versus 2018. In the Performance Materials segment, growth will be driven by continued volume, price and mix improvements as the U.S. and Canada continue adoption of the Tier 3/LEV III standard, China demand increases with early adoption of China 6 and European demand increases as they implement Euro 6d. This growth will be partially offset by marginally lower vehicle demand in North America, China, and Europe, higher costs as we cycle through the higher cost inventory produced during the Zhuhai, China, facility ramp-up and increased legal costs to defend the Company’s intellectual property. In the Performance Chemicals segment, the addition of the Caprolactone Acquisition will be complemented by continued profitable growth in pavement technologies and mix improvements in industrial specialties. We expect these benefits to be partially offset by somewhat lower volumes in industrial specialties, modest inflationary costs in freight, raw materials, and CTO, as well as higher outage costs at the Warrington facility due to planned outages and higher transition service agreement costs as we separate Warrington from Perstorp. Some risks to the 2019 outlook include lower than anticipated North American, Chinese, and European vehicle sales and production, higher non-CTO raw materials costs with higher oil prices, a shift towards smaller vehicles in the U.S. (versus the 2016 to 2018 shift towards light-trucks), lower oil prices and a reduction in oil drilling and production in oilfield technologies, Brexit and ongoing trade and tariff discussions between the U.S. and other countries. We expect to deliver fiscal year 2019 Adjusted EBITDA of $390 million to $400 million.
A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA as projected for 2019 is not provided. Ingevity does not forecast net income as it cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of net income. These components, net of tax, include further restructuring and other income (charges), net; additional acquisition and other related costs in connection with the acquisition of Georgia-Pacific’s pine chemical business and Perstorp Holding AB’s Capa caprolactone business; additional pension and postretirement settlement and curtailment (income) charges; and revisions due to future guidance and assessment of U.S. tax reform. Additionally, discrete tax items could drive variability in our projected effective tax rate. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. Further, in the future, other items with similar characteristics to those currently included in Adjusted EBITDA, that have a similar impact on comparability of periods, and which are not known at this time, may exist and impact Adjusted EBITDA.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of liquidity for Ingevity’s business is the cash flow provided by operations. Projected 2019 cash flow provided by operations is expected to be $290 million to $310 million. We expect our cash flow provided by operations combined with cash on hand and available capacity under our revolving credit facility to be sufficient to meet our working capital needs. Over the next twelve months, we expect to make interest payments, capital expenditures, principal repayments, treasury share repurchases, income tax payments and additional acquisition-related cost payments. We believe these sources will be sufficient to fund our planned operations and meet our interest and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. As of September 30, 2019, our available capacity under our revolving credit facility was $554.9 million. In addition, we also evaluate and consider strategic acquisitions, and joint ventures, as well as other transactions to create stockholder value and enhance financial performance. Such transactions may require cash expenditures. In connection with such transactions, or to fund other anticipated uses of cash, we may modify our existing Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facilities, seek additional debt financing, issue equity securities, or some combination thereof.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $75.6 million at September 30, 2019. Management continuously monitors deposit concentrations and the credit quality of the financial institutions that hold Ingevity's cash and cash equivalents, as well as the credit quality of its insurance providers, customers and key suppliers.
Due to the global nature of our operations, a portion of our cash is held outside the U.S. The cash and cash equivalents balance at September 30, 2019 included $55.6 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. Cash and earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are generally used to finance our foreign operations and capital expenditures. We believe that our foreign holdings of cash will not have a material adverse impact on our U.S. liquidity. Management does not currently expect to repatriate cash earnings from our foreign operations in order to fund U.S. operations. If these earnings were distributed, such amounts would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the statutory rate less the available foreign tax credits, if any, and potentially subject to withholding taxes in the various jurisdictions. The potential tax implications of the repatriation of unremitted earnings are driven by facts at the time

52


of distribution, therefore, it is not practicable to estimate the income tax liabilities that might be incurred if such cash and earnings were repatriated to the U.S.
Other Potential Liquidity Needs
Share Repurchases
On February 20, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our common stock. In addition, on November 1, 2018, the Board of Directors approved the authorization for the repurchase of up to an additional $350.0 million of Ingevity’s outstanding common stock. The repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its evaluation of market prevailing conditions and other factors. At September 30, 2019$389.5 million remained unused under our Board-authorized repurchase program.

Capital Expenditures
Projected 2019 capital expenditures are expected to be $110 million to $120 million.

Cash flows provided (used) by operating activities
During the first nine months of 2019, cash flow provided by operations increased primarily due to relatively flat inventory balances, exclusive of the Caprolactone Acquisition. Below provides a description of the changes to working capital during the first nine months of 2019 (i.e. current assets and current liabilities).

Current assets as of September 30, 2019 increased $76.3 million compared to December 31, 2018 primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventories. Accounts receivable, net as of September 30, 2019 increased $48.3 million, includes $20.8 million associated with the Caprolactone Business as of September 30, 2019, which is consistent with the higher sales in the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2018. Also contributing to the increase in current assets is an increase in Inventories, net. The build in inventories is primarily due to the inclusion of the Caprolactone Business' product inventory of $15.0 million as of September 30, 2019. See Note 4 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the Caprolactone Acquisition and the preliminary purchase price allocation. Additionally, Prepaid and other current

53


assets increased by $11.1 million, primarily related to an income tax receivable in the U.S. Cash and cash equivalents was relatively flat as compared to the balances at December 31, 2018.

The Caprolactone Acquisition contributed $10.7 million to the increase in Current liabilities as of September 30, 2019.
Cash flows provided (used) by investing activities
Cash used by investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $622.4 million and was primarily driven by the $537.9 million purchase of the Caprolactone Business (see Note 4 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information). The remaining cash used by investing activities was primarily driven by capital expenditures. In the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, capital spending included the base maintenance capital supporting ongoing operations and growth spending primarily related to the construction of Performance Materials activated carbon manufacturing facilities in Changshu, China, Waynesboro, Georgia and Covington, Virginia as well as expansion at our Performance Chemicals Deridder, Louisiana and Warrington, United Kingdom facilities.

Cash flows provided (used) by financing activities
Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $433.6 million and was driven by net borrowings of $193.0 million from our revolver and $375.0 million from the amendment to our Term Loan Facility (refer to Note 10 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information), offset by payments on long-term borrowings of $117.8 million, tax payments related to withholdings on restricted stock unit vestings of $14.3 million, and the repurchase of common stock of $6.4 million. Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $179.9 million and was primarily driven by the issuance of our 4.50% senior unsecured notes of $300.0 million, offset by debt issuance costs of $7.1 million, repurchases of common stock $18.1 million, noncontrolling interest distributions of $15.3 million, and $80.0 million associated with the acquisition of noncontrolling interest.

Contractual Obligations
Information related to our contractual commitments at December 31, 2018 can be found in a table included within Part II, Item 7 of our 2018 Annual Report. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Caprolactone Agreement, we completed the acquisition of the Caprolactone Business for an aggregate preliminary purchase price of €578.9 million ($652.5 million), less assumed debt of €100.4 million ($113.1 million). At closing, the assumed debt was settled with an affiliate of the Seller. The Caprolactone Business is being integrated into our Performance Chemicals segment and is included within our engineered polymers product line. Our revolving credit facility was utilized as the primary source of funds, along with available cash on hand, to fund the acquisition (refer to Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information). Subsequent to the acquisition, on March 7, 2019, we borrowed $375.0 million in the form of a new term loan ("Incremental Term A-1 Loans") through an amendment to our Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facilities. The proceeds of the Incremental Term A-1 Loans were used to pay down our revolving credit facility borrowings utilized for the Caprolactone Acquisition (refer to Note 10 of the Condensed Financial Statements for more information). The Incremental Term A-1 Loans are not subject to amortization; the full principal balance is due and payable at maturity on August 7, 2022. As of September 30, 2019, the Incremental Term A-1 Loans bear interest at a rate of 3.11 percent. There have been no other material changes to our contractual commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
New Accounting Guidance
Refer to the Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements including the respective expected dates of adoption and expected effects on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have described our accounting policies in Note 3 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2018 Annual Report. We have reviewed these accounting policies, identifying those that we believe to be critical to the preparation and understanding of our financial statements. Critical accounting policies are central to our presentation of results of operations and financial condition and require management to make estimates and judgments on certain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current conditions and other reasonable factors.
The following is a list of those accounting policies that we have deemed most critical to the presentation and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition:
Revenue recognition and Accounts receivables
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which supersedes both the revenue recognition requirement to ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition” and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the new standard (ASC 606) is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity must also disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative information about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. In 2016 and 2017, the FASB issued several ASUs that provided additional clarity on numerous topics as well as providing technical corrections to ASU 2014-09. We adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018, utilizing the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts, which were not completed as of that date. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be presented in accordance with our historic accounting under ASC 605.
Substantially all our revenue is recognized when products are shipped from our manufacturing and warehousing facilities, which represents the point at which control is transferred to the customer. For certain limited contracts, where we are producing

55


goods with no alternative use and for which we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, we are recognizing revenue as goods are manufactured, rather than when they are shipped.
Sales net of returns and customer incentives are based on the sale of manufactured products. Net sales are recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our products. Since net sales are derived from product sales only, we have disaggregated our net sales by our product lines within each reportable segment. Net sales are measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Sales returns and allowances are not a normal practice in the industry and are not significant. Certain customers may receive cash-based incentives, including discounts and volume rebates, which are accounted for as variable consideration and included in Net sales. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers continue to be included with Net sales. If we pay for the freight and shipping, we recognize the cost when control of the product has transferred to the customer as an expense in Cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Although very rare, from time to time we incur expenses to obtain a sales contract. In these cases, if these costs are for orders that are fulfilled in one year or less, we expense these costs as they are incurred. Because the period between when we transfer a promised good to a customer and when the customer pays for that good will be one year or less, we elect not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of any financing component, as it is not significant.
Accounts receivables consist of amounts owed to Ingevity from customer sales and are recorded at the invoiced amounts when revenue is recognized and generally do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable loss in the existing accounts receivable. We determine the allowance based on historical write-off experience, current collection trends, and external business factors such as economic factors, including regional bankruptcy rates, and political factors. Past due balances over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered.

Valuation of tangible and intangible long-lived assets and goodwill
Our long-lived assets primarily include property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets. We periodically evaluate whether current events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used may not be recoverable. If such circumstances are determined to exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows produced by the long-lived asset, or the appropriate grouping of assets, is compared to carrying value to determine whether an impairment exists.
If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on quoted market prices in active markets, if available. If quoted market prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various valuation techniques, including a discounted value of estimated future cash flows. We report an asset to be disposed of at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated net realizable value.
Goodwill represents the excess of cost of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. We review the recorded value of goodwill at least annually at October 1, or sooner if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. A reporting unit is the level at which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by business management on a regular basis. An impairment exists when the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Our reporting units are our operating segments, i.e. Performance Chemicals and Performance Materials. If an indication exists that the fair value of a reporting unit with goodwill is less than its carrying value, a quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed. The fair value of each reporting unit is estimated primarily using an income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method. The following assumptions are key to the income approach: 1) cash flow and earnings projections; 2) growth rates; 3) discount rates; 4) income tax rates; and, 5) terminal value rates.
The factors we considered in developing our estimates and projections for cash flows and earnings include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) macroeconomic conditions; (ii) industry and market considerations; (iii) costs, such as increases in raw materials, labor, or other costs; (iv) our overall financial performance; and, (v) other relevant entity-specific events that impact our reporting units. The discount rate we used represents the weighted average cost of capital for the reporting units, considering the risks and uncertainty inherent in the cash flows of the reporting units and in our internally-developed forecasts.


56


The determination of whether goodwill is impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the estimated fair values of our reporting units. We believe that the assumptions and rates used in our impairment assessment are reasonable; however, these assumptions are judgmental and variations in any assumptions could result in materially different calculations of fair value. We will continue to evaluate goodwill on an annual basis as of October 1, and whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as significant adverse changes in operating results, market conditions, or changes in management’s business strategy indicate that there may be a probable indicator of impairment. It is possible that the assumptions used by management related to the evaluation may change or that actual results may vary significantly from management’s estimates.

Business Combinations
We account for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations” which requires, among other things, the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed; the recognition of acquisition-related costs in the consolidated results of operations; the recognition of restructuring costs in the consolidated results of operations for which the acquirer becomes obligated after the acquisition date; and contingent purchase consideration to be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date with subsequent adjustments recognized in the consolidated results of operations. We generally use third party qualified consultants to assist management in determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This includes, when necessary, assistance with the determination of lives and valuation of property and identifiable intangibles, assisting management in determining the fair value of obligations associated with employee related liabilities and assisting management in assessing obligations associated with legal and environmental claims.
The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired are determined primarily by using an income approach, which is based on assumptions and estimates made by management. Significant assumptions utilized in the income approach are the attrition rate, growth rates and discount rate. These assumptions are based on company specific information and projections, which are not observable in the market and are therefore considered Level 2 and Level 3 measurements. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Based on the acquired business’ end markets and products as well as how the chief operating decision maker will review the business results determines the most appropriate operating segment for which to integrate the acquired business. Goodwill acquired, if any, is allocated to the reporting unit within or at the operating segment for which the acquired business will be integrated. Operating results of the acquired entity are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from date of acquisition.

Income taxes
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions, including China. The provision for income taxes includes income taxes paid, currently payable or receivable, and deferred taxes. We follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with current accounting standards regarding the accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recorded based upon the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect at the time the underlying assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. The ability to realize deferred tax assets is evaluated through the forecasting of taxable income, historical and projected future operating results, the reversal of existing temporary differences, and the availability of tax planning strategies. Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.  We do not provide income taxes on undistributed earnings of consolidated foreign subsidiaries as it is our intention that such earnings will remain invested in those companies.
We recognize income tax positions that are more likely than not to be realized and accrue interest related to unrecognized income tax positions, which is included as a component of the income tax provision, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign currency exchange rate risk
We have foreign-based operations, primarily in Europe, South America and Asia, which accounted for approximately 21 percent of our net sales in the first nine months of 2019. Ingevity's significant operations outside the U.S. have designated the local currency as their functional currency. The primary currencies for which we have exchange rate exposure are the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the Japanese yen and the Chinese renminbi. In addition, certain of our domestic operations have sales to foreign customers. In the conduct of our foreign operations, we also make inter-company sales. All of this exposes us to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our earnings are therefore subject to change due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when the earnings in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars. Foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge firm and highly anticipated foreign currency cash flows. The U.S. dollar versus the euro is our most significant foreign currency exposure. A hypothetical 10 percent change in the average euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, would have changed our net sales and income before income taxes by approximately $9.7 million or one percent and $3.1 million or two percent, respectively.

Interest rate risk
Our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility each include a variable interest rate component. As a result, we are subject to interest rate risk with respect to such floating-rate debt. A 100 basis point increase in the variable interest rate component of our borrowings as of September 30, 2019 would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $9.4 million or 18 percent.
In the second quarter of 2019, we entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap for an initial aggregate notional amount of $141.3 million to limit exposure to interest rate increases related to a portion of the Company’s floating rate indebtedness. This swap agreement hedges a portion of contractual floating rate interest through its expiration in July 2023. As a result, the Company’s effective fixed interest rate on the notional amount floating rate indebtedness will be 3.96% through May 2021. The fair value of this instrument at September 30, 2019 was a liability of $5.0 million.

Other market risks
Information about our other remaining market risks for the period ended September 30, 2019 does not differ materially from that discussed under Item 7A of our 2018 Annual Report.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a)    Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

Ingevity maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures designed to give reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in Ingevity's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. These controls and procedures also give reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of September 30, 2019, Ingevity's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), together with management, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of Ingevity's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level described above. As further discussed in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included within this Form 10-Q, we completed the acquisition of the Caprolactone Business on February 13, 2019. We have begun the process of analyzing the related systems of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting and integrating them within our framework of controls. Accordingly, pursuant to SEC guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment for up to one year following the date of acquisition, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures does not include any disclosure controls and procedures of the Caprolactone Business.

58



b)    Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

There has been no change in Ingevity's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Ingevity's internal control over financial reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the Caprolactone Business' processes, information technology systems, and other components of internal controls over financial reporting as a part of the Company's integration activities which may result in periodic control changes. Such changes will be disclosed as required by applicable SEC guidance.

Unless otherwise stated, a Performance Goal applicable to a Qualified Performance Award need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a particular business criterion and could include, for example, maintaining the status quo or limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria).
(d)    Interpretation; Code Requirements. In interpreting Plan provisions applicable to Qualified Performance Awards, it is the intent of this Plan to conform with the standards of Code Section 162(m) and

13



Treasury Regulation § 1.162-27(e)(2)(i), and the Committee in establishing such goals and interpreting this Plan shall be guided by such provisions. Prior to the payment of any compensation based on the achievement of Performance Goals applicable to Qualified Performance Awards, the Committee must certify in writing that applicable Performance Goals and any of the material terms thereof were, in fact, satisfied. For this purpose, approved minutes of the Committee meeting in which the certification is made shall be treated as such written certification. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Qualified Performance Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee.

13.4    Adjustment of Performance Awards. The Committee may provide in any such Performance Award in writing in advance that the results may be adjusted to include or exclude particular factors, including but not limited to any of the following events that occur during a Performance Period:
    
(a)    asset write-downs;
    
(b)    litigation or claim judgments or settlements;

(c)    the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or provisions affecting reported results;

(d)    any reorganization and restructuring programs;

(e)    extraordinary nonrecurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to shareholders for the applicable Fiscal Year;

(f)    acquisitions or divestitures;
    
(g)    foreign exchange gains and losses; and
    
(h)    settlement of hedging activities.

Section 14
Change in Control

14.1    General. The provisions of this Section 14 shall, subject to Section 4.1, apply notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, except to the extent the Committee specifically provides otherwise in an Award Agreement.

14.2    Impact of Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement:

(a)    Treatment of Replacement Awards.

(i)    To the extent that any Award outstanding as of the date of a Change in Control is replaced by a Replacement Award (as defined in Section 14.3 below), such Award shall not vest as a result of the Change in Control, and instead shall continue to vest and become exercisable (as applicable) subject to the Participant’s continued service during the remaining vesting period and the satisfaction of the other terms and conditions of the Replacement Award.

14



(ii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, upon a Qualified Termination of Employment, (A) all Replacement Awards then held by such Participant shall vest in full, be free of restrictions, and be deemed to be earned in full, and (B) any Replacement Award then held by such Participant that is an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (I) the three-year anniversary of the Qualified Termination of Employment and (II) the expiration of the stated full term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right. For any Stock Award that vests pursuant to this Section 14.2(a)(ii), (x) if such Award does not constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall be settled within five days following the termination of employment and (y) if such Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall be settled pursuant to the settlement terms applicable to such Award.

(b)    Treatment of Awards that are not Replaced by Replacement Awards. To the extent that any Award outstanding as of the date of a Change in Control is not replaced by a Replacement Award (as defined in Section 14.3 below):

(i)    All such then-outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall become fully vested and exercisable, and all such then-outstanding Stock Awards (other than Awards described in Section 14.2(b)(ii)) shall vest in full, be free of restrictions, and be deemed to be earned in an amount equal to the full value of such Award. For any Stock Award that vests pursuant to this Section 14.2(b)(i), (A) if such Award does not constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall be settled within five days following the Change in Control and (B) if such Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall be settled pursuant to the settlement terms applicable to such Award.

(ii)    Any such performance-based Stock Award shall be deemed to be earned in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the full value of such performance-based Award (with all applicable Performance Goals deemed achieved at the greater of (I) the applicable target level and (II) the level of achievement of the Performance Goals for the Award as determined by the Committee not later than the date of the Change in Control, taking into account performance through the latest date preceding the Change in Control as to which performance can, as a practical matter, be determined (but not later than the end of the applicable Performance Period)), and (B) the Applicable Pro-Ration Factor. For any Stock Award that vests pursuant to this Section 14.2(b)(ii), (x) if such Award does not constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, the Award shall be settled within five days following the Change in Control, (y) if such Award constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and the Change in Control is a 409A CIC, the Award shall be settled within five days following the Change in Control, and (z) if such Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and the Change in Control is not a 409A CIC, the Award shall be settled pursuant to the settlement terms applicable to such Award. For purposes of this Section 14.2(b)(ii), with respect to any Award covered by this Section 14.2(b)(ii), “Applicable Pro-Ration Factor” shall mean the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days that have elapsed during the applicable performance period through and including the date of the Change in Control by the total number of days covered by the full performance period.

(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan or in any Award Agreement, upon a Change in Control, the Company may settle any Awards that constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and that are not replaced by a

15



Replacement Award, to the extent the settlement is effectuated in accordance with Treasury Reg. § 1.409A-3(j)(ix)).

14.3    Replacement Awards. An Award shall qualify as a “Replacement Award” if: (a) it is of the same type as the Award intended to be replaced by the Replacement Award (the “Replaced Award”); (b) it has a value equal to the value of the Replaced Award as of the date of the Change in Control, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion consistent with 4.1; (c) the underlying Replaced Award was an equity-based Award, it relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Company or the entity surviving the Company (or such surviving entity’s parent) following the Change in Control; (d) it contains terms relating to vesting (including with respect to a termination of employment) that are substantially identical to those of the Replaced Award; and (e) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of the Replaced Award (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control) as of the date of the Change in Control. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the applicable Replaced Award if the requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination whether the conditions of this Section 14.3 are satisfied shall be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion.

14.4    Certain Outstanding Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, each Award granted prior to the amendment of the Plan effective as of July 31, 2019 and outstanding thereafter shall be subject to the applicable provisions of Section 14 of the Plan as in effect immediately before such date and the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement.

14.5    Definition of Change in Control. Except as otherwise may be provided in an applicable Award Agreement, for purposes of the Plan, a “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events:

(a)    An acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 30% or more of either (i) the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (ii) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); excluding, however, the following: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company, other than an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted itself was acquired directly from the Company, (B) any repurchase by the Company, (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any entity controlled by the Company, or (D) any acquisition pursuant to a transaction that complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of subsection (c) of this Section 14.5; or

(b)    A change in the composition of the Board such that the individuals who, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, constitute the Board (such Board shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 14.5(b), any individual who becomes a member of the Board subsequent to the Effective Date of the Plan, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of those individuals who are members of the Board and who were also members of the Incumbent Board (or deemed to be such pursuant to this proviso) shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board; provided, further, that any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board shall not be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or

16



    
(c)    The consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”); excluding, however, such a Business Combination pursuant to which (i) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who are the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock, and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Person (other than the Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, 30% or more of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors except to the extent that such ownership derives from ownership of a 30% or more interest in the Outstanding Company Common Stock and/or Outstanding Company Voting Securities that existed prior to the Business Combination, and (iii) individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination; or

(d)    The approval by stockholders of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Section 15
Taxes

The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of required withholding taxes or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made.
Section 16
Term, Amendment And Termination

(a)    Effectiveness. The Plan shall be effective as of May 16, 2016 (the “Effective Date”).

(b)    Termination. The Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Awards outstanding as of such date shall not be affected or impaired by the termination of the Plan.

(c)    Amendment of Plan. The Board may amend, alter, or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would materially impair the rights of the Participant with respect to a previously granted Award without such Participant’s consent, except such an amendment made to comply with applicable law (including without limitation Section 409A of the Code), stock exchange rules

17



or accounting rules. In addition, no amendment shall be made without the approval of the Company’s stockholders to the extent such approval is required by applicable law or the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange or such other securities exchange as may at the applicable time be the principal market for the Common Stock.

(d)    Amendment of Awards. Subject to Section 5.4, the Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, but no such amendment shall, without the Participant’s consent, materially impair the rights of any Participant with respect to an Award, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or Award to comply with applicable law, stock exchange rules or accounting rules.

Section 17
Assignability

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and expressly provided for in an Award Agreement, no Award or any other benefit under this Plan shall be assignable or otherwise transferable except (1) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or (2) pursuant to a domestic relations order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction that is not contrary to the terms and conditions of this Plan or applicable Award and in a form acceptable to the Committee. The Committee may prescribe and include in applicable Award Agreements other restrictions on transfer. Any attempted assignment of an Award or any other benefit under this Plan in violation of this Section 17 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Award may be transferred for value or consideration.
Section 18
Restrictions

No Common Stock or other form of payment shall be issued with respect to any Award unless the Company shall be satisfied based on the advice of its counsel that such issuance will be in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered under this Plan (to the extent that such shares are so evidenced) may be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or transaction reporting system upon which the Common Stock is then listed or to which it is admitted for quotation and any applicable federal or state securities law. The Committee may cause a legend or legends to be placed upon such certificates (if any) to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
Section 19
Unfunded Plan

This Plan is unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be established with respect to Participants who are entitled to cash, Common Stock or rights thereto under this Plan, any such accounts shall be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience. The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by cash, Common Stock or rights thereto, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such segregation, nor shall the Company, the Board or the Committee be deemed to be a trustee of any cash, Common Stock or rights thereto to be granted under this Plan. Any liability or obligation of the Company to any Participant with respect to an Award of cash, Common Stock or rights thereto under this Plan shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created by this Plan and any Award Agreement, and no such liability or obligation of the Company shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Company. None of the Company, the Board or the Committee shall be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any obligation that may be created by

18



this Plan. With respect to this Plan and any Awards granted hereunder, Participants are general and unsecured creditors of the Company and have no rights or claims except as otherwise provided in this Plan or any applicable Award Agreement.
Section 20
Code Section 409A

20.1    Awards. Awards made under this Plan are intended to comply with or be exempt from Code Section 409A, and ambiguous provisions hereof, if any, shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent. No payment, benefit or consideration shall be substituted for an Award if such action would result in the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if any Plan provision or Award under this Plan would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Code Section 409A, that Plan provision or Award shall be reformed, to the extent permissible under Code Section 409A, to avoid imposition of the additional tax, and no such action shall be deemed to adversely affect the Participant’s rights to an Award; provided that this Section 20.1 shall not require the Company to incur any costs other than administrative costs.

20.2    Settlement Period. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, each Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Unit Award or Cash Award (or portion thereof if the Award is subject to a vesting schedule) shall be settled no later than the 15th day of the third month after the end of the first calendar year in which the Award (or such portion thereof) is no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. If the Committee determines that a Restricted Stock Unit Award, Performance Unit Award or Cash Award is intended to be subject to Code Section 409A, the applicable Award Agreement shall include terms that are designed to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A.

20.3    Specified Employees. If the Participant is identified by the Company as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) on the date on which the Participant has a “separation from service” (other than due to death) within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h), any Award payable or settled on account of a separation from service that is deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid or settled on the earliest of (i) the first business day following the expiration of six months from the Participant’s separation from service, (ii) the date of the Participant’s death, or (iii) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A.

Section 21
Awards to Non-U.S. Employees

Awards may be granted to Employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Employees employed in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable in order to recognize differences in local law or tax policy. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the Company’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Employees on assignments outside their home country.

19



Section 22
Governing Law

This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of the Code or the securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
Section 23
Right to Continued Service or Employment

Nothing in this Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or its Subsidiaries at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the capacity in which he is employed or otherwise serves the Company or its Subsidiaries.
Section 24
Usage

Words used in this Plan in the singular shall include the plural and in the plural the singular, and the gender of words used shall be construed to include whichever may be appropriate under any particular circumstances of the masculine, feminine or neutral genders.
Section 25
Employee Matters Agreement

Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, to the extent that the terms of this Plan are inconsistent with the terms of an Adjusted Award, the terms of the Adjusted Award shall be governed by the Employee Matters Agreement, the applicable Parent Long-Term Incentive Plan and the award agreement granted thereunder.
Section 26
Headings

The headings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Plan.
