TOKIN was established in Japan in 1938 and is engaged in production and distribution of tantalum capacitors, transmitting communication devices, magnetic devices, piezoelectric devices and sensors. TOKIN has </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">six</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> manufacturing locations throughout Asia and was previously operating as a joint venture with NEC. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On April 14, 2017, TOKIN closed on the sale of its electro-mechanical devices (&#8220;EMD&#8221;) business to NTJ Holdings 1 Ltd. (&#8220;NTJ&#8221;), a special purpose entity that is owned by funds managed or operated by Japan Industrial Partners, Inc.

The initial selling price for EMD was </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">JPY 48.2 billion</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, or approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$431.0 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, using the March 31, 2017 exchange rate of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">111.823</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Japanese Yen (&#8220;JPY&#8221;) to 1.00 U.S. Dollar (&#8220;USD&#8221;), and was subject to certain working capital adjustments.

At the closing of the Sale of EMD, TOKIN used a portion of the sale proceeds to repay debt related to a shareholder loan from NEC. The TOKIN historical balance sheet was adjusted to reflect the removal of net assets sold and other items directly impacted by the Sale of EMD. Additionally, due to KEMET&#8217;s </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">34%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> equity interest in TOKIN held as of the closing, adjustments were made to reflect KEMET&#8217;s accounting for the Sale of EMD in accordance with the equity method of accounting.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On April 19, 2017, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the &#8220;TOKIN Purchase Agreement&#8221;) dated February 23, 2017 between KEC and NEC, KEC completed its acquisition, subject to final purchase price adjustments, of the remaining </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">66%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> economic interest in TOKIN, and as a result, TOKIN became a </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">100%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> owned indirect subsidiary of KEMET (the &#8220;TOKIN Acquisition&#8221;).

The acquisition price was subject to working capital adjustments pursuant to the EMD Master Sale and Purchase Agreement. As a result of these working capital adjustments, the acquisition price was increased by </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">JPY 0.3 billion</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, or approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$3.0 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> (using the September 30, 2017 exchange rate of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">112.502</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Japanese Yen to 1.00 U.S. Dollar) in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;padding-top:10px;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company believes the acquisition of TOKIN expands KEMET&#8217;s geographic presence, combining KEMET&#8217;s presence in the western hemisphere and TOKIN&#8217;s excellent position in Asia to enhance customer reach and creates an entrance into Japan for KEMET. The Company believes TOKIN&#8217;s product portfolio is a strong complement to KEMET&#8217;s existing product portfolio. KEMET believes the combination creates a leader in the combined polymer and tantalum capacitors market. The acquisition also enhances KEMET&#8217;s product diversification with entry into Electro-Magnetic Compatible ("EMC") devices, as well as sensors and actuators. With the increased scale, the Company anticipates optimizing costs through competitive raw materials sourcing and maximizing operating efficiencies. Consistent with expectations, the acquisition has been accretive to earnings with improvement in Net income, Adjusted EBITDA and cash flows. TOKIN&#8217;s tantalum capacitor business is included within KEMET&#8217;s Solid Capacitor segment (&#8220;Solid Capacitors&#8221;) and the remainder of TOKIN&#8217;s business formed a new reportable segment for KEMET in fiscal year 2018, Electro-Magnetic, Sensors, and Actuators (&#8220;MSA&#8221;).</font></div></div> 0000887730 2019-04-01 2019-06-30 0000887730 2019-07-31 0000887730 2019-06-30

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
 
Note 1 . Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of KEMET Corporation and its subsidiaries (“KEMET” or the “Company”). In the opinion of management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise disclosed, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 (the “Company’s 2019 Annual Report”).
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In consolidation, all intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated. Net sales and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are presented in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report. Refer to the “Change in Accounting Policies” section below for changes in accounting policies since the issuance of the Company's 2019 Annual Report.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments based on historical data and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, they affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
The Company’s judgments are based on management’s assessment as to the effect certain estimates, assumptions, or future trends or events may have on the financial condition and results of operations reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. It is important that readers of these unaudited financial statements understand that actual results could differ from these estimates, assumptions, and judgments.
Change in Accounting Policies
Effective April 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases (“ASC 842”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing (Hosting) Arrangement that is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). As a result, the Company changed its accounting policy for leases and for implementation costs related to hosting arrangements. Except as discussed below, there have not been any other changes to the Company's significant accounting policies since the issuance of the Company's 2019 Annual Report.
Leases
ASC 842 requires the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for operating leases on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective transition approach by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application and not restating comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed the Company to not reassess whether arrangements contained leases, not reassess lease classifications, and not reassess initial direct costs. The adoption of ASC 842 did not impact beginning retained earnings, or the prior year Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows.
Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period and other facts and circumstances. The Company has elected to not allocate the contract consideration for operating lease contracts with lease and non-lease components, and account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Operating lease ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make

7



lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease prepayments, net of lease incentives.
Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The lease term is determined by assuming the exercise of renewal options that are reasonably certain. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses its local incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. 
ROU assets and the short-term and long-term lease liabilities from operating leases are included in “Other assets,” “Accrued expenses,” and “Other non-current obligations,” respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company's accounting for finance leases (formerly referred to as capital leases prior to the adoption of ASC 842) remains substantially unchanged. Finance leases are not material to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 14 , Leases , for additional information regarding the Company's leases and related transition adjustments.
Capitalized Software and Cloud-computing Arrangements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company early adopted the amendment in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and is applying the ASU prospectively to implementation costs incurred after April 1, 2019. 
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company had $2.2 million of capitalized implementation costs related to cloud-computing arrangements, net of amortization. These capitalized implementation costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected terms of the hosting arrangements and are amortized in the same line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as the expense for fees for the associated hosting arrangements.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under the guidance provided in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Consistent with the terms of ASC 606, the Company records revenue on product sales in the period in which the Company satisfies its performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products to a customer. The Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 and does not consider the effects of a financing component on the promised amount of consideration because the period between when the Company transfers a product to a customer and when the customer pays for that product is one year or less. As performance obligations are expected to be fulfilled in one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-50-14 and has not disclosed information relating to remaining performance obligations.
The Company sells its products to distributors, original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”), and electronic manufacturing services providers (“EMS”), and the sales price may include adjustments for sales discounts, price adjustments, and sales allowances. The Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-10-4 and evaluates these sales-related adjustments on a portfolio basis. The principle forms of these adjustments include:
Inventory price protection and ship-from stock and debit (“SFSD”) programs,
Distributor rights of returns,
Sales allowances, and
Limited assurance warranties
The Company's inventory price protection and SFSD programs provide authorized distributors with the flexibility to meet marketplace prices by allowing them, upon a pre-approved case-by-case basis, to adjust their purchased inventory cost to correspond with current market demand. Requests for SFSD adjustments are considered on an individual basis, require a pre-approved cost adjustment quote from their local KEMET sales representative, and apply only to a specific customer, part, specified special price amount, specified quantity, and are only valid for a specific period of time. To estimate potential SFSD adjustments corresponding with current period sales, KEMET records a sales reserve based on historical SFSD credits, distributor inventory levels, and certain accounting assumptions, all of which are reviewed quarterly.
Select distributors have the right to return a certain portion of their purchased inventory to KEMET from the previous fiscal quarter. The Company estimates future returns based on historical return patterns and records a corresponding right of

return asset and refund liability as a component of the line items, “Inventories, net” and “Accrued expenses,” respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also offers volume based rebates on a case-by-case basis to certain customers in each of the Company’s sales channels.
The Company's sales allowances are recognized as a reduction in the line item “Net sales” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, while the associated reserves are included in the line item “Accounts receivable, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Estimates used in determining sales allowances are subject to various factors. This includes, but is not limited to, changes in economic conditions, pricing changes, product demand, inventory levels in the supply chain, the effects of technological change, and other variables that might result in changes to the Company’s estimates.
The Company provides a limited assurance warranty on products that meet certain specifications to select customers. The warranty coverage period is generally limited to one year for United States based customers and a length of time commensurate with regulatory requirements or industry practice outside the United States. A warranty cannot be purchased by the customer separately and, as a result, product warranties are not considered to be separate performance obligations. The Company’s liability under these warranties is generally limited to a replacement of the product or refund of the purchase price of the product. Warranty costs were not material for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 .
Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Refer to Note 8 , “ Segment and Geographic Information” for revenue disaggregated by primary geographical market, sales channel, and major product line.
Contract liabilities
Contract liabilities consist of advance payments from certain customers within the OEM channel for the development of additional production capacity. The current and noncurrent portions of these liabilities are included as a component of the line items, “Accrued expenses” and “Other non-current obligations,” respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The balance of net contract liabilities consisted of the following at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 (amounts in thousands):

In the three months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company did not recognize any revenue related to contract liabilities at March 31, 2019 . In the three months ended June 30, 2018 , the Company recognized revenue of $0.1 million related to contract liabilities at March 31, 2018 . Revenue related to contract liabilities is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the line item, "Net sales."
Contract assets
The Company recognizes an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill a contract if those costs directly relate to an existing or anticipated contract or specific business opportunity, if the costs enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future, and the costs are expected to be recovered through subsequent sale of product to the customer. The Company has determined that certain direct labor, materials, and allocations of overhead incurred within research and development activities meet the requirements to be capitalized. As most of the Company's contracts and customer specific business opportunities do not include a stated term, the Company amortizes these capitalized costs over the expected product life cycle, which is consistent with the estimated transfer of goods to the customer. Capitalized contract costs were $1.5 million and $1.6 million at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 , respectively. Capitalized contracts costs are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line item, “Other assets.” Amortization expense related to the contract costs was $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. There was no impairment loss in relation to the costs capitalized for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Amortization expense related to contract assets is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the line item "Cost of sales."

Fair Value Measurement
The Company utilizes three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of (a) nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) and (b) all financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The first two levels of inputs are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable. The levels of inputs are as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 are as follows (amounts in thousands):

(2) Certificates of Deposit of $34.1 million and $32.2 million that mature in three months or less are included within the balance as of June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 , respectively.
(3) Derivative assets and liabilities fair value was determined by using a third-party matrix-pricing model that uses significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. Where applicable, these models discount future cash flow amounts using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate yield curves, and forward and spot prices for currencies. For total debt, the valuation approach used to calculate fair value was a discounted cash flow based on the current market rate.
Deferred Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the fiscal years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company periodically evaluates its net deferred tax assets based on an assessment of historical performance, ability to forecast future events, and the likelihood that the Company will realize the benefits through future taxable income. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce the net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. For interim reporting purposes, the Company records income taxes based on the expected annual effective income tax rate, taking into consideration global forecasted tax results and the effect of discrete tax events. The Company makes certain estimates and judgments in the calculation for the provision for income taxes, in the resulting tax liabilities, and in the recoverability of deferred tax assets. All deferred tax assets are reported as noncurrent in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

TOKIN Term Loan Facility
On October 29, 2018, the Company entered into a JPY 33.0 billion Term Loan Agreement (the “TOKIN Term Loan Facility”) by and among TOKIN Corporation (“TOKIN”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited in its capacity as agent (the “Agent”), arranger and Lender. Funding for the TOKIN Term Loan Facility occurred on November 7, 2018. The proceeds, which were net of an arrangement fee withheld from the funding amount, were JPY 32.1 billion , or approximately $283.9 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018. Net of the arrangement fee, bank issuance costs, and other indirect issuance costs, the Company's net proceeds from the TOKIN Term Loan Facility was $281.8 million .

11



The proceeds from the TOKIN Term Loan Facility were used by TOKIN to make intercompany loans (the “Intercompany Loans”) to the Company. The proceeds of the Intercompany Loans, along with other cash on hand, were used by the Company to prepay in full the outstanding amounts under the Company's previous term loan of $323.4 million and a prepayment premium of 1.0% , or $3.2 million .
The TOKIN Term Loan Facility consists of (i) a JPY 16.5 billion (approximately $146.0 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018) Term Loan A tranche (the “Term Loan A”) and (ii) a JPY 16.5 billion (approximately $146.0 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018) Term Loan B tranche (the “Term Loan B” and, together with the Term Loan A, collectively, the “Term Loans”). Principal payments under Term Loan A are required semi-annually, in the amount of JPY 1.4 billion (approximately $12.8 million using the exchange rate as of June 30, 2019 ), while the principal of Term Loan B is due in one payment at maturity. At each reporting period, the carrying value of the loan is translated from Japanese Yen to U.S. Dollars using the spot exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period.
Interest payments are due semi-annually on the Term Loans, with the interest rate based on a margin over the six-month Japanese TIBOR. The applicable margin for Term Loan A is 2.00% and for Term Loan B is 2.25% . Japanese TIBOR at June 30, 2019 was 0.13% . Interest payable related to the TOKIN Term Loan Facility included in the line item “Accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $1.7 million as of June 30, 2019 .
The Term Loans mature on September 30, 2024. KEMET and certain subsidiaries of TOKIN provided guarantees of the obligations under the Term Loans, which also are secured by certain assets, properties and equity interests of TOKIN and its material subsidiaries. The Term Loans contain customary covenants applicable to both the Company and to TOKIN, including maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio, the absence of two consecutive years of consolidated operating losses and the maintenance of certain required levels of consolidated net assets. The TOKIN Term Loan Facility agreement also contains customary events of default. The Company may prepay the Term Loans at any time, subject to certain notice requirements and reimbursement of loan breakage costs.
Revolving Line of Credit
In connection with the closing of the TOKIN Term Loan Facility on October 29, 2018, the Company entered into Amendment No. 10 to the Loan and Security Agreement, Waiver and Consent (the “Revolver Amendment”), by and among KEMET, KEMET Electronics Corporation (“KEC”), the other borrowers named therein, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for the lenders. The Revolver Amendment provides the Company with, among other things, increased flexibility for certain restricted payments (including dividends), and also released certain pledges that allowed the Company to obtain the TOKIN Term Loan Facility in order to pay in full the Company's prior term loan. The revolving line of credit has a facility amount of up to $75.0 million , which is based on factors including outstanding eligible accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment collateral. There were no borrowings under the revolving line of credit during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 , and the Company’s available borrowing capacity under the Loan and Security Agreement was $62.5 million  as of  June 30, 2019 .
Customer Advances
In September, November, and February of fiscal year 2019, the Company entered into three agreements with different customers (the “Customers”) pursuant to which the Customers agreed to make advances (collectively, the “Advances”) to the Company in an aggregate amount of up to $72.0 million (collectively, the “Customer Capacity Agreements”). The Company is using these Advances to fund the purchase of production equipment and to make other investments and improvements in its business and operations (the “Investments”) to increase overall capacity to produce various electronic components of the type and part as may be sold by the Company to the Customers from time to time. The Company retains all rights to the production equipment purchased with the funds from the Advances. The Advances from the Customers are being made in quarterly installments (“Installments”) over an expected period of 18 to 24 months from the effective date of the Customer Capacity Agreements .
The Advances will be repaid beginning on the date that production from the Investments is sufficient to meet the Company's obligations under the agreements with the Customers. Repayments will be made on a quarterly basis as determined by calculations that generally consider the number of components purchased by the Customers during the quarter. Repayments based on the calculations will continue until either the Advances are repaid in full, or December 31, 2038 for all three Customers. The Company has a quarterly repayment cap in the agreement with each of the Customers and is not required to make any quarterly repayments to the Customers that in the aggregate exceeds $1.8 million. If the Customers do not purchase a number of components that would require full repayment of the Advances by December 31, 2038, then the Advances shall be deemed repaid in full. Additionally, if the Customers do not purchase a number of components that would require a payment on the Advances for a period of 16 consecutive quarters, the Advances shall be deemed repaid in full .
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company has received a total of $26.0 million in Advances from these Customers. Since the debt is non-interest bearing, the Company has recorded debt discounts on the Advances . T hese discounts will be amortized

12



over the expected life of the Advances through interest expense. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company had  $7.7 million  in capital expenditures related to the Customer Capacity Agreements.
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company had $2.6 million in cash that was restricted to be used to fund these Investments. Restricted cash is recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In January 2017, KEMET Electronics Portugal, S.A. (“KEP”), a wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a program with the Portuguese government where KEP is eligible to receive interest free loans if purchases of fixed assets meet certain approved terms within the program. In January 2017, KEP received the first part of an interest free loan in the amount of EUR 2.2 million (or $2.5 million ). In July 2017, KEP received the second part of the loan in the amount of EUR 0.3 million (or $0.3 million ). The loan has a maturity date of February 1, 2025. The loan will be repaid through semi-annual payments on August 1 and February 1 of each year beginning on August 1, 2019. The repayments will be in the amount of EUR 0.2 million (or $0.2 million ).
    In February 2019, KEP received a second interest free loan from the Portuguese government in the amount of EUR 0.9 million , (or $1.1 million ). The loan has a maturity date of September 1, 2026 and will be repaid through semi-annual payments on March 1 and September 1 of each year beginning on March 1, 2021. The repayments will be in the amount of EUR 0.1 million (or $0.1 million ).
Since the KEP debt is non-interest bearing, the Company has recorded debt discounts on these loans. These discounts are being amortized over the life of the loans through interest expense. If certain conditions are met by KEP, such as increased headcount at its facility in Evora, Portugal, increased revenue, and increased gross value added, a portion of these loans could be forgiven.
TOKIN has a short term borrowing pursuant to an agreement with The 77 Bank Limited, located in Japan, in the amount of 350.0 million Yen (or $3.2 million ), at an interest rate of 0.53% (Japanese TIBOR plus 40 basis points). The loan was originally due in September 2018 and was extended to September 2019. The loan agreement automatically renews for successive one year periods if both parties choose not to terminate or modify it.

 __________________
(1) The current quarter credit for manufacturing relocation and exit costs is due to the recovery of costs related to the sale of tantalum that has been reclaimed (“tantalum reclaim”) as part of the plant exit activities. Tantalum reclaim in future periods is expected to further reduce the cumulative incurred costs.
A summary of the expenses aggregated in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations line item “Restructuring charges” in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , is as follows (amounts in thousands):

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019
The Company incurred $2.2 million in restructuring charges in the three months ended June 30, 2019 comprised of $1.2 million in personnel reduction costs and $1.0 million in manufacturing relocation and exit costs.
The personnel reduction costs of $1.2 million were primarily due to $0.7 million in costs in the Film and Electrolytic segment related to severance charges resulting from the closing of the Granna, Sweden manufacturing plant as axial electrolytic production is being moved to the plant in Evora, Portugal and $0.5 million in costs in the Solid Capacitors segment related to severance charges resulting from the closing of the tantalum powder facility in Carson City, Nevada as tantalum powder production is moving to the plant in Matamoros, Mexico.
The manufacturing relocation and exit costs of $1.0 million primarily related to $1.3 million in costs resulting from the relocation of axial electrolytic production equipment from the Company's plant in Granna, Sweden to its plant in Evora, Portugal. Manufacturing relocation and exit costs were benefited by a $0.6 million credit from tantalum reclaim.

Investment in Novasentis
During fiscal year 2018, KEMET invested in the Series-D round of funding of Novasentis, a leading developer of film-based haptic actuators. Novasentis produces the world’s thinnest electro mechanical polymer-based actuators that provide rich haptic feedback for a variety of applications, including AR/VR and Wearables. Novasentis supplies its “smart” film and KEMET applies its expertise in manufacturing film capacitors to the development and commercial production of the actuators. The Company's ownership percentage in Novasentis is 27.9% and it has 1 of 3 seats on Novasentis’ board of directors. Additionally, KEMET has an exclusive manufacturing supply agreement with Novasentis, whereby Novasentis will purchase goods exclusively from KEMET and KEMET shall manufacture and sell goods exclusively to Novasentis.
While the Company determined that Novasentis is a variable interest entity, the Company concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of Novasentis. Accordingly, the Company accounts for its investment in Novasentis under the equity method of accounting.
The carrying amount of the Company's equity investment in Novasentis was  $0.7 million and  $1.0 million  as of  June 30, 2019  and  March 31, 2019 , respectively. Subsequent to June 30, 2019 , the Company purchased the remaining ownership interests in Novasentis and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
KEMET Jianghai Joint Venture
On January 29, 2018, KEC entered into a joint venture agreement (the “Agreement”) with Jianghai (Nantong) Film Capacitor Co., Ltd (“Jianghai Film”), a subsidiary of Nantong Jianghai Capacitor Co., Ltd (“Jianghai”) for the formation of KEMET Jianghai Electronic Components Co. Ltd., a limited liability company located in Nantong, China. KEMET Jianghai was officially formed on May 16, 2018 to manufacture axial electrolytic capacitors and (H)EV Film DC brick capacitors, for distribution through the KEMET and Jianghai Film sales channels. During fiscal year 2019 the Company signed an amendment to the Agreement with Jianghai Film to expand the scope of KEMET Jianghai to also produce solid aluminum capacitors and aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The Company's ownership percentage is 50.0% and the Company and Jianghai Film are equally represented on the joint venture’s board of directors.
The Company's initial capital contribution to KEMET Jianghai was made during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, and the Company accounts for its investment using the equity method due to the related nature of operations and its ability to influence the joint venture's decisions. As of June 30, 2019 , the carrying amount of the Company's equity investment in KEMET Jianghai was $4.4 million .

Note 9 .  Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors twelve defined benefit pension plans: six in Europe, one in Singapore, two in Mexico, two in Japan, and one in Thailand. The Company funds the pension liabilities in accordance with laws and regulations applicable to those plans.
In addition, the Company maintains two frozen post-retirement benefit plans in the United States: health care and life insurance benefits for certain retired United States employees who reached retirement age while working for the Company. The health care plan is contributory, with participants’ contributions adjusted annually. The life insurance plan is non-contributory.
The balance sheet classifications and carrying amounts of the Company's pension and other post-retirement benefit plans at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 consist of the following (amounts in thousands):

All of the amounts in the tables above, other than service cost, were recorded in the line item "Other (income) expense, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In fiscal year 2020 , the Company expects to contribute up to $5.1 million to the pension plans, $0.9 million of which has been contributed as of June 30, 2019 . For the postretirement benefit plan, the Company’s policy is to pay benefits as costs are incurred. 
Note 10 . Stock-Based Compensation
As of June 30, 2019 , the KEMET Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) is the only plan utilized by the Company to issue equity-based awards to executives and key employees.
The Incentive Plan has authorized, in the aggregate, the grant of up to 12.2 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, comprised of 11.4 million shares under the Incentive Plan and 0.8 million shares remaining from prior plans and authorizes the Company to provide equity-based compensation in the form of:
stock options, including incentive stock options, entitling the optionee to favorable tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code;
stock appreciation rights;
restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”);
other share-based awards; and
performance awards.
Except as described below, options issued under these plans vest within one to three years and expire ten years from the grant date.
Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and Long-term Incentive Plans (“LTIP”)
Time-based RSUs vest over three years , except for RSUs granted to members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), which vest immediately. The Company grants RSUs to members of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and key members of management. Once vested and settled, RSUs are converted into stock. For members of the Board and key members of management, such stock cannot be sold until 90  days after termination of service with the Company, or until the individual achieves the targeted ownership under the Company’s stock ownership guidelines, and only to the extent that such ownership level exceeds the target. Compensation expense is recognized over the respective vesting periods. 
Historically, the Board of the Company has approved annual LTIPs, which cover two -year periods and are primarily based upon the achievement of an adjusted EBITDA range for the two-year period. At the time of the award, the individual plans entitle the participants to receive cash or RSUs, or a combination of both as determined by the Company's Board. The Company assesses the likelihood of meeting the Adjusted EBITDA financial metric on a quarterly basis and adjusts compensation expense to match expectations. The 2017/2018 LTIP, 2018/2019 LTIP, 2019/2020 LTIP and 2020/2021 LTIP also awarded time-based RSUs which vest over the course of three years from the anniversary of the grant date and are not subject to a performance metric. Any related liability (for the cash portion of the LTIP) is reflected in the line item “Accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and any RSU commitment is reflected in the line item “Additional paid-in capital” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In the “Operating activities” section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, stock-based compensation expense was treated as an adjustment to net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , and 2018 . There were 16,667 stock options exercised in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 44,100 stock options were exercised in the three months ended June 30, 2018 .
Note 11 . Income Taxes
During the three months ended June 30, 2019 , the Company recognized $16.8 million of income tax expense, comprised of $5.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations, $11.0 million of federal income tax expense, and $0.1 million of state income tax expense.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018 , the Company recognized $4.6 million of income tax expense, comprised of $4.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations, $0.2 million of federal income tax expense, and

22



$0.3 million of state income tax benefit. The $4.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations included a $0.9 million benefit related to the settlement of an uncertain tax position.
The effective tax rates differ from income taxes recorded using a statutory rate largely due to the relative mix in earnings and losses in various tax jurisdictions, the usage of the net operating losses, and reversal of associated valuation allowances previously recorded on the deferred tax assets.
Note 12 . Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share calculation is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share calculation is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include stock options and RSUs.

There were no common stock equivalents that could potentially dilute net income per basic share in the future, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive.
Note  13 . Derivatives
Certain of the Company’s foreign operations expose the Company to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the Company’s cash payments, assets, and liabilities in terms of the Company’s functional currency. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value of certain obligations and its net investment in its TOKIN subsidiary in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. dollar. The Company’s primary exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk relates to (i) intercompany financings with TOKIN, (ii) its net investment in TOKIN, and (iii) certain operating expenses at the Company’s Mexican facilities.
    The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company does not utilize derivatives for speculative or other purposes other than currency risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that any counterparty to a contractual arrangement may not be able to perform under the agreement. To mitigate this risk, historically the Company has only entered into derivative financial instruments with a counterparty that is a major financial institution with a high credit rating. The Company does not anticipate that the counterparty will fail to meet its obligations.
Each derivative instrument that qualifies for hedge accounting is expected to be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged, and the Company monitors each instrument for effectiveness on a quarterly basis. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions.
Changes in fair value of all its derivative instruments are reported in earnings or in AOCI, depending on whether the derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction, and if so, the type of hedge transaction. The Company records all derivative financial instruments on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Certain of the derivative

23



instruments are subject to master netting agreements and are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a net basis. If the Company were to account for the asset and liability balances of those derivative contracts on a gross basis, the amounts presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets would be adjusted from the current net presentation to the gross amounts as detailed in the table below.
The balance sheet classifications and fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges as of June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 are as follows (amounts in thousands):

Fair Value Hedging Strategy
The Company entered into two cross-currency swaps designated as fair value hedges on November 7, 2018 to hedge the foreign currency risk on the Intercompany Loans. These agreements were contracts to exchange floating-rate payments in one currency with floating-rate payments in another currency. Changes in the fair value of these cross-currency swaps due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates were recognized in earnings upon the recognition of the change in the fair value of the hedged intercompany financings. The notional value of these contracts was JPY 31.6 billion or $279.7 million at March 31, 2019 .
The Company terminated these contracts with the counterparty on May 28, 2019, and received proceeds of $6.5 million for the combined fair value of these contracts at the time of termination.
Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations Strategy
The Company entered into a cross-currency swap designated as a net investment hedge on November 7, 2018 to hedge the JPY currency exposure of the Company’s net investment in TOKIN. This agreement is a contract to exchange fixed-rate payments in one currency for fixed-rate payments in another currency. Changes in the fair value of this swap are recorded in equity as a component of AOCI in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments. In assessing the effectiveness of this hedge, the Company uses a method based on changes in spot rates to measure the impact of the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on both its foreign subsidiary net investment and the related swap. Under this method, changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument other than those due to changes in the spot rate are initially recorded in AOCI as a translation adjustment, and then are amortized into other (income) expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations using a systematic and rational method over the instrument’s term. Changes in the fair value associated with the effective portion (i.e. those changes due to the spot rate) are recorded in AOCI as a translation adjustment and are released and recognized in earnings only upon the sale or liquidation of the hedged net investment. The terms of this cross-currency swap are as follows:
An amortizing cross-currency swap with an initial notional value of JPY 33.0 billion . The notional amount is amortized by approximately JPY 1.4 billion every six months and matures on September 30, 2024. Interest payments are made by the Company in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 2.61% . The Company receives interest in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 6.25% .
The notional value of this contract was JPY 31.6 billion or $279.7 million at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 , respectively.

24



Cash Flow Hedging Strategy
Foreign Exchange Contracts
Certain operating expenses at the Company’s Mexican facilities are paid in Mexican Pesos. In order to hedge a portion of these forecasted cash flows, the Company purchases foreign exchange contracts, with terms generally less than fifteen months, to buy Mexican Pesos for periods and amounts consistent with underlying cash flow exposures. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges at inception.
Unrealized gains and losses associated with the change in fair value of the foreign exchange contracts are recorded in AOCI. Changes in the derivatives’ fair values are deferred and recorded as a component of AOCI until the underlying transaction is settled and recorded to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. When the hedged item affects income, gains or losses are reclassified from AOCI to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as Cost of Sales for foreign exchange contracts to purchase such foreign currency. The notional value of outstanding Peso contracts was $100.7 million and $74.3 million as of June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 , respectively.
Cross-Currency Swaps
On May 28, 2019, the Company entered into two cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the foreign currency risk on the principal payments on the Intercompany Loans. These agreements are contracts to exchange floating-rate payments in one currency with fixed-rate payments in another currency. The Company uses these cross-currency swaps to hedge the changes in cash flows on the Intercompany Loans due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For this hedging program, the Company records the remeasurement of the Intercompany Loans due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates each period. Changes in the fair value of these cross-currency swaps are initially recorded in AOCI each period with an immediate reclassification into earnings for the change in fair value attributable to the fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges. The Company excludes the change in the fair value of these cross-currency swaps due to changes in interest rates from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Changes in fair value of the swaps associated with changes in interest rates are initially recorded as a component of AOCI and recognized into other (income) expense, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations using a systematic and rational method over the instrument’s term. The terms of the two cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges are as follows:
An amortizing cross-currency swap with an initial notional value of JPY 15.1 billion . The notional value is amortized by approximately JPY 1.4 billion every six months and matures on September 30, 2024. The Company receives interest in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and JPY Libor plus 2.00% . Interest payments are made in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 4.88% .
A non-amortizing cross-currency swap with a notional value of JPY 16.5 billion maturing on September 30, 2024. The Company receives interest in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and JPY Libor plus 2.25% . Interest payments are made in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 5.26% .
The notional value of these contracts were JPY 31.6 billion , or $288.9 million as of June 30, 2019 .

Business Overview
KEMET is a leading global manufacturer of a wide variety of capacitors, and Electro-magnetic compatible ("EMC") devices, sensors and actuators. With respect to capacitors, we compete in the passive electronic component industry, specifically multilayer ceramic, tantalum, film and aluminum (solid & electrolytic) capacitors. While KEMET competes in the passive electronic component industry, our strategic focus is on growth markets, specialty products requiring high reliability, and within our Ceramic product line, larger case size capacitors.
Product offerings include surface mounts, which are attached directly to the circuit board; leaded capacitors, which are attached to the circuit board using lead wires; and chassis-mount and other pin-through-hole board-mount capacitors, which utilize attachment methods such as screw terminal and snap-in. Capacitors are electronic components that store, filter, and regulate electrical energy and current flow. As an essential passive component used in nearly all circuit boards, capacitors are typically used for coupling, decoupling, filtering, oscillating and wave shaping and are used in communication systems, servers, personal computers, tablets, cellular phones, automotive electronic systems, defense and aerospace systems, consumer electronics, power management systems and many other electronic devices and systems (basically anything that plugs in or has a battery). While our broad product offering allows us to meet the majority of those needs independent of application and end use, our strategic focus is on high growth and specialty markets.
Solid Capacitors' products are commonly used in conjunction with integrated circuits, and the same circuit may contain both ceramic and tantalum capacitors. Tantalum capacitors are a popular choice because of their ability for high capacitance in a small volume package. While ceramic capacitors are more cost-effective at lower capacitance values, tantalum capacitors are more cost-effective at higher capacitance values while solid aluminum capacitors can be more effective in special applications.
KEMET's Tantalum business continues to transition toward a higher proportion of Polymer technology sales in which KEMET has market share leadership greater than 50.0%. Growth drivers for this product line include advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving systems, tablets and PC’s, 5G infrastructure and connectivity, data servers and solid state drives and power density energy systems. 
KEMET's Ceramic business continues to focus on its specialty (value added) and large cap size business. Growth drivers for Ceramic include electric vehicles, advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving systems, 5G infrastructure and connectivity, data servers and solid state drives, wireless charging, satellites, radar, and guidance systems.
Film, paper, and aluminum electrolytic capacitors can be used to support integrated circuits, but also are used in the field of power electronics to provide energy for applications such as motor starts, power conditioning, electromagnetic interference filtering safety, and inverters. Film and Electrolytic's self healing products deliver high reliability solutions for extreme conditions. Growth drivers for Film and Electrolytic include alternative energy solutions, electric vehicle charging stations, and hybrid and electric vehicles.
KEMET's Electro-magnetic, Sensors & Actuators (“MSA”) business offers a broad line of electrical noise management products that play a key role in maintaining signal integrity across a number of end markets including telecommunications, mobile computing, automotive and general industries. Additionally, MSA's sensor and actuator business manufactures products that sense and respond to human activity, physical vibration, and electric current, which are found in home appliances, consumer devices, and industrial electrical equipment. Growth drivers for MSA include electric vehicles, advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving systems, industry 4.0, 5G infrastructure and connectivity, and power density and energy efficiency systems.
KEMET operates twenty-two production facilities in Europe, North America, and Asia, and employs approximately 14,000 employees worldwide. Commodity manufacturing previously located in the United States has been substantially relocated to our lower-cost manufacturing facilities in Mexico, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, and countries in Europe. Production remaining in the United States focuses primarily on early-stage manufacturing of new products and other specialty products for which customers are predominantly located in North America.

30



KEMET serves the needs of our global customer base through four geographic regions: North America and South America (“Americas”), Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), Asia and the Pacific Rim (“APAC”) and Japan and Korea (“JPKO”). The Company sells its products through three channels: distributors, original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”), and electronic manufacturing services providers (“EMS”). 
Our products are sold into a wide range of industries, including the computer, communications, automotive, military, consumer, industrial, medical, and aerospace industries. No single end market industry accounted for more than 30% of net sales, although one electronics distributor, TTI, Inc., accounted for more than 10% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2019 . In addition, an aggregate of over 10% of our net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2019 were driven by sales to EMS providers for incorporation into Apple Inc. products. No single end-use direct customer accounted for more than 5% of our net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2019 . During the three months ended June 30, 2019 we introduced 959 new products of which 259 were first to market. In addition, we continue to focus on specialty products which accounted for 31.2% of our revenue over this period.
We believe the long-term demand for the various types of capacitors we offer will grow on a regional and global basis due to a variety of factors, driven primarily by the following recent trends:
industry 4.0:
the development of new products, applications and electronic controls for engines and industrial machinery, including cyber physical systems, cloud computing, and cognitive computing; security smart phones and mobile personal computing devices;
the “internet-of-things”;
the increase in the electronic content of existing products, such as home appliances and medical equipment, smart phones and mobile personal computing devices;
the enhanced functionality, complexity and convergence of electronic devices that use state-of-the-art microprocessors;
alternative and renewable energy systems;
Electric vehicles and advanced driver assisted electronics; and,
the development of 5G infrastructure and connectivity.
We are organized into three reportable segments: Solid Capacitors, Film and Electrolytic, and MSA. Each segment is responsible for the operations of certain manufacturing sites as well as all related research and development efforts. The sales, marketing and corporate functions are shared by each of the segments.
The Company does not allocate corporate indirect selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) or shared Research and development (“R&D”) expenses to the segments.

__________________
(1) The current quarter credit for manufacturing relocation and exit costs is due to the recovery of costs related to the sale of tantalum that has been reclaimed (“tantalum reclaim”) as part of the plant exit activities. Tantalum reclaim in future periods is expected to further reduce the cumulative incurred costs.
Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, we expect net sales to be within the $320.0 million to $330.0 million range, non-GAAP adjusted gross margin as a percentage of net sales is expected to be between 33.5% and 35.0%, non-GAAP SG&A expenses are expected to be between $43.0 million and $45.0 million, and R&D expenses are expected to be approximately $12.5 million to $13.5 million. Our global effective tax rate is expected to between 25.0% and 28.0%. We expect to spend in the range of $45.0 million to $55.0 million in capital expenditures for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020.
The Company has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures as projected for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, including adjusted gross margin and adjusted SG&A expenses. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP adjusted gross margin and GAAP to non-GAAP SG&A expenses are not provided. The Company does not forecast GAAP gross margin and GAAP SG&A expenses as it cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of each. These components include stock-based compensation expenses for GAAP gross margin and stock-based compensation expenses and ERP integration costs/IT transition costs for GAAP SG&A expenses. Further, in the future, other items with similar characteristics to those currently included in adjusted gross margin and adjusted SG&A expenses, that have a similar impact on the comparability of periods, and which are not known at this time, may exist and impact adjusted gross margin and adjusted SG&A expenses.

Net Sales
Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 of $345.2 million increased $17.6 million or 5.4% from $327.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . For the quarter ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2018 , Solid Capacitors net sales increased $34.4 million , Film and Electrolytic net sales decreased $8.2 million , and MSA net sales decreased $8.5 million .
The increase in Solid Capacitors net sales was primarily driven by a $36.3 million increase in Ceramics net sales. The increase in Ceramics nets sales resulted from a $24.5 million increase in distributor net sales across all regions, a $7.2 million increase in EMS net sales across all regions, and a $4.8 million increase in OEM net sales across the Americas, APAC, and EMEA regions. The increase in Solid Capacitors net sales was partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in Tantalum net sales. The decrease in Tantalum net sales was due to an $9.8 million decrease in distributor net sales across the APAC and EMEA regions and a $0.9 million decrease in OEM net sales across the EMEA and JPKO regions. These decreases in Tantalum net sales were partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in EMS net sales across all regions, a $3.6 million increase in OEM sales across the Americas and APAC regions, and a $0.9 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas and JPKO regions. Solid Capacitors net sales was negatively impacted by $2.7 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar.
For Film and Electrolytic, the decrease in net sales was primarily driven by a $4.6 million decrease in distributor sales across the APAC and EMEA regions, a $4.0 million decrease in OEM net sales across the APAC, EMEA, and JPKO regions, and a $0.9 million decrease in EMS sales across the APAC and EMEA channels. The decrease in Film and Electrolytic net sales was partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in EMS net sales in the Americas region and a $0.3 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas and JPKO regions. Film and Electrolytic net sales was unfavorably impacted by $2.2 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar.
The decrease in MSA net sales was primarily driven by a $9.1 million decrease in OEM net sales across all regions and a $0.9 million decrease in distributor net sales in the APAC region. The decrease in MSA net sales was partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas, EMEA, and JPKO regions and a $0.6 million increase in

33



EMS net sales in the APAC region. MSA net sales was favorably impacted by $0.1 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Japanese Yen compared to the U.S. dollar.

Gross Margin
Gross margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 of $121.6 million ( 35.2% of net sales) improved $26.8 million or 28.3% from $94.8 million ( 28.9% of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 , and gross margin as a percentage of net sales improved 630 basis points.
Solid Capacitors gross margin increased $32.4 million , or 40.6% , primarily due to continued variable margin improvement resulting from manufacturing process improvements, vertical integration, and ongoing restructuring activities, as well as an increase in net sales due to a favorable shift in product mix and sales channel. Price increases for certain products also contributed to the increase in net sales and gross margin.
Film and Electrolytic gross margin decreased $0.6 million , or 16.7% , due to a decrease in net sales.
MSA gross margin decreased $5.0 million , or 42.3% , primarily due to a decrease in net sales, as well as a shift in the product mix toward lower margin products.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses of $47.9 million ( 13.9% of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 decreased $0.7 million or 1.4% from $48.5 million ( 14.8% of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The decrease was mainly attributed to a $3.4 million decrease in payroll expenses, mainly due to a decrease in incentive compensation. Partially offsetting this decrease was a $2.1 million increase in professional fees and a $0.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense.
Research and Development
R&D expenses of $12.2 million ( 3.5% of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased $1.5 million or 13.9% compared to $10.7 million ( 3.3% of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The increase was primarily related to a $0.9 million increase in payroll expenses and a $0.7 million increase in materials and supplies expenses.
Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges of $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 , increased $2.3 million compared to a credit of $0.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 .  
The Company incurred $2.2 million of restructuring charges in the quarter ended June 30, 2019 which consisted of $1.2 million in personnel reduction costs and $1.0 million in manufacturing relocation and exit costs.

34



The personnel reduction costs of $1.2 million were primarily due to $0.7 million in costs in the Film and Electrolytic segment related to severance charges resulting from the closing of the Granna, Sweden manufacturing plant as axial electrolytic production is being moved to the plant in Evora, Portugal and $0.5 million in costs in the Solid Capacitors segment related to severance charges resulting from the closing of the tantalum powder facility in Carson City, Nevada as tantalum powder production is moving to the plant in Matamoros, Mexico.
The manufacturing relocation and exit costs of $1.0 million primarily related to $1.3 million in costs resulting from the relocation of axial electrolytic production equipment from the Company's plant in Granna, Sweden to its plant in Evora, Portugal. Manufacturing relocation and exit costs were benefited by a $0.6 million credit from tantalum reclaim.
Operating Income
Operating income of $58.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 improved $23.2 million from operating income of $35.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The improvement was primarily attributable to a $26.8 million improvement in gross margin and a $0.7 million decrease in SG&A expenses. These improvements to operating income were partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in restructuring charges, a $1.5 million increase in R&D expenses, and a $0.4 million increase in net loss on write down and disposal of long-lived assets.
Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net  
Non-operating expense, net was $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 compared to non-operating income, net of $4.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The $5.7 million unfavorable change was primarily attributable to a reduction in income from foreign exchange adjustments of $7.2 million derived from currency fluctuations in the Thai Bhat, Chinese Yuan, British pound, Euro, and Mexican Peso, and a decrease in R&D grant reimbursements and grant income of $4.1 million. The unfavorable change was partially offset by $4.9 million in net interest expense savings due to reduced interest expense attributable to the Company's refinancing of its term loan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense of $16.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased $12.2 million compared to income tax expense of $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . Income tax expense of $16.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was comprised of $5.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations, $11.0 million of federal income tax expense, and $0.1 million of state income tax expense.
Income tax expense of $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 was comprised of $4.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations, $0.2 million of federal income tax expense, and $0.3 million of state income tax benefit. The $4.7 million of income tax expense related to foreign operations included a $0.9 million benefit related to the settlement of an uncertain tax position.
The effective tax rates differ from income taxes recorded using a statutory rate largely due to the relative mix in earnings and losses in various tax jurisdictions and the usage of the net operating losses and reversal of associated valuation allowances previously recorded on the deferred tax assets.
Equity Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments
Equity loss of $0.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 had an unfavorable change of $0.2 million compared to equity loss of $0.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The change was primarily related to equity losses of $0.3 million and $0.1 million from Novasentis and KEMET Jianghai, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 .

Net Sales
Solid Capacitors net sales of $248.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased $34.4 million or 16.1% from $213.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The increase in net sales was primarily due to a $36.3 million increase in Ceramics net sales. The increase in Ceramics nets sales resulted from a $24.5 million increase in distributor net sales across all regions, a $7.2 million increase in EMS net sales across all regions, and a $4.8 million increase in OEM net sales across the Americas, APAC, and EMEA regions. The increase in Solid Capacitors net sales was partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in Tantalum net sales. The decrease in Tantalum net sales was due to an $9.8 million decrease in distributor net sales across the APAC and EMEA regions and a $0.9 million decrease in OEM net sales across the EMEA and JPKO regions. These decreases in Tantalum net sales were partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in EMS net sales across all regions, a $3.6 million increase in OEM sales across the Americas and APAC regions, and a $0.9 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas and JPKO regions. Solid Capacitors net sales was negatively impacted by $2.7 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar.
Segment Operating Income
Segment operating income of $102.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased $33.0 million or 47.4% from $69.7 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The increase in operating income was primarily a result of a $32.4 million increase in gross margin, which was driven by continued variable margin improvement resulting from manufacturing process improvements, vertical integration, and ongoing restructuring activities, as well as an increase in net sales due to a favorable shift in product mix and sales channel. Price increases for certain products also contributed to the increase in net sales and gross margin. Additionally, a $1.3 million decrease in SG&A expenses and a $0.1 million decrease in net loss on write down and disposal of long-lived assets contributed to the increase in operating income. Partially offsetting these improvements was a $0.7 million increase in R&D expenses and a $0.1 million increase in restructuring charges for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2018 .

Film and Electrolytic net sales of $46.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 decreased $8.2 million or 15.0% from $55.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by a $4.6 million decrease in distributor sales across the APAC and EMEA regions, a $4.0 million decrease in OEM net sales across the APAC, EMEA, and JPKO regions, and a $0.9 million decrease in EMS sales across the APAC and EMEA channels. The decrease in Film and Electrolytic net sales was partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in EMS net sales in the Americas region and a $0.3 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas and JPKO regions. Film and Electrolytic net sales was unfavorably impacted by $2.2 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar.
Segment Operating Income (Loss)
Segment operating loss of $2.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 worsened by approximately $3.9 million compared to operating income of $1.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The decrease in operating income was a result of a $2.0 million increase in restructuring charges, a $0.9 million increase in net loss on write down and disposal of long-lived assets, a $0.6 million decrease in gross margin, and a $0.5 million increase in R&D expenses. The increase in restructuring charges mainly relates to the relocation of axial electrolytic production from the Granna plant to the Evora plant and the increase in net loss on write down and disposal of long-lived assets relates to $0.9 million impairment on the Granna property. The decrease in gross margin was due to a decrease in net sales. Partially offsetting these declines to operating income was a $0.1 million decrease in SG&A expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2018 .

The decrease in MSA net sales was partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in distributor net sales across the Americas, EMEA, and JPKO regions and a $0.6 million increase in EMS net sales in the APAC region. MSA net sales was favorably impacted by $0.1 million from foreign currency exchange due to the change in the value of the Japanese Yen compared to the U.S. dollar.

Segment Operating Income
Segment operating income of $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 decreased approximately $2.4 million from $6.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 . The decrease in operating income was primarily a result of a $5.0 million decrease in gross margin, which was primarily driven by a decrease in net sales, as well as a shift in the product mix toward lower margin products. Partially offsetting this decline was a $2.5 million decrease in SG&A expenses and a $0.1 million decrease in R&D expenses.

38



Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity needs arise from working capital requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions, principal and interest payments on debt, costs associated with the implementation of our restructuring plans, and dividend payments. Historically, our cash needs have been met by cash flows from operations, borrowings under our loan agreements, and existing cash balances.
TOKIN Term Loan Facility     
On October 29, 2018, the Company entered into a JPY 33.0 billion Term Loan Agreement (the “TOKIN Term Loan Facility”) by and among TOKIN Corporation (“TOKIN”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited in its capacity as agent (the “Agent”), arranger and Lender. Funding for the TOKIN Term Loan Facility occurred on November 7, 2018. The proceeds, which were net of an arrangement fee withheld from the funding amount, were JPY 32.1 billion , or approximately $283.9 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018.
The proceeds from the TOKIN Term Loan Facility were used by TOKIN to make intercompany loans (the “Intercompany Loans”) to the Company. The proceeds of the Intercompany loans, along with other cash on hand, were used to prepay in full the outstanding amounts under the Company’s previous term loan of $323.4 million and a prepayment premium of 1.0% , or $3.2 million .
The TOKIN Term Loan Facility consists of (i) a JPY 16.5 billion (approximately $146.0 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018) Term Loan A tranche (the “Term Loan A”) and (ii) a JPY 16.5 billion (approximately $146.0 million using the exchange rate as of November 7, 2018) Term Loan B tranche (the “Term Loan B” and, together with the Term Loan A, collectively, the “Term Loans”). Principal payments under Term Loan A are required semi-annually, in the amount of JPY 1.4 billion (approximately $12.8 million using the exchange rate as of June 30, 2019 ), while the principal of Term Loan B is due in one payment at maturity. At each reporting period, the carrying value of the loan is translated from JPY to U.S. Dollars (“USD”) using the spot exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. The carrying value of the TOKIN Term Loan Facility at June 30, 2019 was $284.6 million .
Interest payments are due semi-annually on the Term Loans, with the interest rate based on a margin over the six-month Japanese TIBOR. The applicable margin for Term Loan A is 2.00% and for Term Loan B is 2.25% . Japanese TIBOR at June 30, 2019 was 0.13% . Interest payable related to the TOKIN Term Loan Facility included in the line item “Accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $1.7 million as of June 30, 2019 .
The Term Loans mature on September 30, 2024. KEMET and certain subsidiaries of TOKIN provided guarantees of the obligations under the Term Loans, which also are secured by certain assets, properties and equity interests of TOKIN and its material subsidiaries. The TOKIN Term Loan Facility contains customary covenants applicable to both the Company and to TOKIN, including maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio, the absence of two consecutive years of consolidated operating losses and the maintenance of certain required levels of consolidated net assets. The TOKIN Term Loan Facility agreement also contains customary events of default. The Company may prepay the Term Loans at any time, subject to certain notice requirements and reimbursement of loan breakage costs.        
Revolving Line of Credit
In connection with the closing of the TOKIN Term Loan Facility on October 29 2018, the Company entered into Amendment No. 10 to the Loan and Security Agreement, Waiver and Consent (the “Revolver Amendment”), by and among KEMET, KEMET Electronics Corporation (“KEC”), the other borrowers named therein, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for the lenders. The Revolver Amendment provides the Company with, among other things, increased flexibility for certain restricted payments (including dividends), and also released certain pledges that allowed the Company to obtain the TOKIN Term Loan Facility in order to pay down in full previous term loan. The revolving line of credit has a facility amount of up to $75.0 million , which is based on factors including outstanding eligible accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment collateral.
As of June 30, 2019 , there were no borrowings under the revolving line of credit, and the Company’s available borrowing capacity, which is based on factors including outstanding eligible accounts receivable, inventory and equipment collateral, under the Revolver Amendment was $62.5 million .

39



Customer Advances
In September, November, and February of fiscal year 2019, the Company entered into three agreements with different customers (the “Customers”) pursuant to which the Customers agreed to make advances (collectively, the “Advances”) to the Company in an aggregate amount of up to $72.0 million (collectively, the “Customer Capacity Agreements”). The Company is using these Advances to fund the purchase of production equipment and to make other investments and improvements in its business and operations (the “Investments”) to increase overall capacity to produce various electronic components of the type and part as may be sold by the Company to the Customers from time to time. The Company retains all rights to the production equipment purchased with the funds from the Advances. The Advances from the Customers are being made in quarterly installments (“Installments”) over an expected period of 18 to 24 months from the effective date of the Customer Capacity Agreements .
The Advances will be repaid beginning on the date that production from the Investments is sufficient to meet the Company's obligations under the agreements with the Customers. Repayments will be made on a quarterly basis as determined by calculations that generally consider the number of components purchased by the Customers during the quarter. Repayments based on the calculations will continue until either the Advances are repaid in full, or December 31, 2038 for all three Customers. The Company has a quarterly repayment cap in the agreement with each of the Customers and is not required to make any quarterly repayments to the Customers that in the aggregate exceeds $1.8 million. If the Customers do not purchase a number of components that would require full repayment of the Advances by December 31, 2038, then the Advances shall be deemed repaid in full. Additionally, if the Customers do not purchase a number of components that would require a payment on the Advances for a period of 16 consecutive quarters, the Advances shall be deemed repaid in full .
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company has received a total of $26.0 million in Advances from these Customers. Since the debt is non-interest bearing, the Company has recorded debt discounts on the Advances . T hese discounts will be amortized over the expected life of the Advances through interest expense. The carrying value of this debt at June 30, 2019 was $20.9 million .
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company had  $7.7 million  in capital expenditures related to the Customer Capacity Agreements. As of June 30, 2019 , the Company had $2.6 million in cash that was restricted to be used to fund these Investments. Restricted cash is recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
Derivatives
On November 7, 2018, the Company entered into two cross-currency swaps designated as fair value hedges in order to hedge the foreign currency risk on the Intercompany Loans. On May 28, 2019, these two cross currency swaps were replaced with new swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the principal repayments on the Intercompany Loans. These new agreements are contracts to exchange floating-rate payments in JPY with fixed rate payments in USD. The swaps are intended to offset in the same period the remeasurement of the carrying value of the underlying foreign currency Intercompany Loans. The terms of these cross-currency swaps are as follows:
An amortizing cross-currency swap with an initial notional value of JPY 15.1 billion . The notional value is amortized by approximately JPY 1.4 billion every six months and matures on September 30, 2024. The Company receives interest in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and JPY Libor plus 2.00% . Interest payments are made in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 4.88% .
A non-amortizing cross-currency swap with a notional value of JPY 16.5 billion maturing on September 30, 2024. The Company receives interest in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and JPY Libor plus 2.25% . Interest payments are made in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 5.26%
On November 7, 2018, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap designated as a net investment hedge to hedge the JPY currency exposure of the Company's net investment in TOKIN. This agreement is a contract to exchange fixed-rate payments in one currency for fixed-rate payments in another currency. The terms of this cross-currency swap are as follows:
An amortizing cross-currency swap with an initial notional value of JPY 33.0 billion . The notional amount is amortized by approximately JPY 1.4 billion every six months and matures on September 30, 2024. Interest payments are made by the Company in JPY on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 2.61% . The Company receives interest in USD on March 31 and September 30 of each year based on the USD equivalent of the JPY notional value and a fixed rate of 6.25% .

Short-Term Liquidity  
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2019 of $217.3 million increased $9.4 million from $207.9 million as of March 31, 2019 . Our net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) as of June 30, 2019 was $405.1 million compared to $363.6 million as of March 31, 2019 . Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries totaled $144.9 million and $139.6 million at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 , respectively, with the increase primarily driven by cash held in Singapore and China. Our operating income outside the U.S. is not deemed to be permanently reinvested in foreign jurisdictions. However, we currently do not intend nor foresee a need to repatriate cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S., we may be required to accrue U.S. withholding taxes on the distributed foreign earnings.
Based on our current operating plans, we believe domestic cash and cash equivalents, including expected cash generated from operations, are sufficient to fund our operating requirements for at least the next twelve months, including approximately $6.5 million in interest payments, $29.2 million in debt principal payments, $1.9 million in restructuring payments, and $11.6 million in anticipated cash dividends (subject to approval by the Board of Directors of the Company). As of June 30, 2019 , our borrowing capacity, which is based on factors including outstanding eligible accounts receivable, inventory and equipment collateral, under the revolving line of credit was $62.5 million . The revolving line of credit expires on April 28, 2022 .
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 , as compared to a decrease of $42.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 .

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To complement our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows, we use non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that Adjusted gross margin, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted EBITDA are complements to GAAP amounts and such measures are useful to investors. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance, or, in the case of EBITDA, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

Adjusted gross margin represents net sales less cost of sales excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above. Management uses Adjusted gross margin to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted gross margin is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted gross margin should not be considered as an alternative to gross margin or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted operating income represents operating income, excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above. We use Adjusted operating income to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business

operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted operating income is useful to investors to provide a supplemental way to understand our underlying operating performance and monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted operating income should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income represents net income, excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above. We use Adjusted net income to evaluate our operating performance by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted net income is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and allows investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted net income should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense, interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization expense, excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided above. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance and ability to service debt. We also present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity because cash expenditures on interest are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense goes down as deductible interest expense goes up; and depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges. The other items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect our continuing operations.
In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, one should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments noted above. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these types of adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. 
Our Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments;
it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and our Adjusted EBITDA measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;
it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and
other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementarily. 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than operating lease commitments, we are not a party to any material off-balance sheet financing arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 1 , “ Basis of Financial Statement Presentation ," in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
During fiscal year 2019, we entered into cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency risk on Intercompany Loans and to hedge the JPY currency exposure of the Company's net investment in TOKIN. We use these derivative financial instruments primarily to reduce our exposure to adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes and our derivative positions are used to reduce risk by hedging an underlying economic exposure. Because of the high correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure, fluctuations in the value of the instruments are generally offset by reciprocal changes in the value of the underlying exposure. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, we terminated our fair value hedges and subsequently entered into two cash flow hedges to limit our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Other than the foregoing, there have been no material changes to our market risks as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on May 30, 2019.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding continued disclosure. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2019 (the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), due to a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting, as further described in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 30, 2019.
Notwithstanding the material weakness discussed above, the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that the Company's Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in this report on Form 10-Q in accordance with GAAP.
Remediation Plan
Management is in the process of remediating this material weakness and has engaged an independent third-party to assist with the evaluation of the internal controls pertaining to the initiation and recording of net sales and accounts receivable. We intend to implement new, and refine existing controls, as well as provide additional training and improve our documentation as it pertains to the initiation and recording of net sales and accounts receivable. We will continue to work to remediate these deficiencies prior to the end of fiscal year 2020. However, the deficiencies will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that the controls are operating effectively.

46



Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company implemented new internal controls for the adoption of the new lease standard that became effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.
Other than those changes described in the immediately preceding paragraph, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
“Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of our 2019 Form 10-K includes a discussion of our legal proceedings. Except as described below, there have been no material changes from the Company’s legal proceedings described in our 2019 Form 10-K.
As previously reported, KEMET and KEC, along with more than 20 other capacitor manufacturers and subsidiaries (including TOKIN, as described below), are defendants in a purported antitrust class action complaint, In re: Capacitors Antitrust Litigation , No. 3:14-cv-03264-JD, filed on December 4, 2014 with the United States District Court, Northern District of California (the “U.S. Class Action Complaint”). The complaint alleges a violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, for which it seeks injunctive and equitable relief and money damages. The discovery phase has closed. Briefing on dispositive motions will be completed in August 2019. Trial is currently scheduled to begin in February 2020.
In addition, KEMET, KEC, TOKIN, and TOKIN America, along with more than 20 other capacitor manufacturers and subsidiaries, had been named as defendants in two suits by plaintiffs who had chosen not to participate in the U.S. Class Action Complaint: AASI Beneficiaries’ Trust v. AVX Corporation, et al. , filed on August 29, 2016 in the United States District Court, Southern District of Florida, and Benchmark Electronics, Inc., et al. v. AVX Corporation, et al. , filed on April 18, 2017 in the United States District Court, Southern District of Texas (the “AASI and Benchmark Complaints”). The AASI and Benchmark complaints alleged generally the same violations as the U.S. Class Action Complaint. On May 24, 2019, TOKIN and TOKIN America Inc. entered into a definitive settlement agreement with the plaintiffs of the AASI and Benchmark Complaints, by which TOKIN agreed to pay $0.95 million in consideration of the release of TOKIN and its direct and indirect parents, subsidiaries and affiliates from any and all claims asserted in the AASI and Benchmark Complaints. TOKIN paid the settlement amount on June 20, 2019. On July 18, 2019, the AASI and Benchmark Complaints against KEMET, KEC, TOKIN, and TOKIN America were dismissed.
On December 9, 2015, the Taiwan Fair Trade Commission (“TFTC”) publicly announced that TOKIN would be fined 1.2 billion New Taiwan dollars (“NTD”) (approximately USD $39.2 million ) for violations of the Taiwan Fair Trade Act. Subsequently, the TFTC has reduced the fine to NTD 609.1 million (approximately USD $19.6 million ). In February 2016, TOKIN commenced an administrative suit in Taiwan, challenging the validity of the amount of the fine. On August 23, 2018, the Taipei High Administrative Court revoked the TFTC decision, finding that the decision had been time-barred by applicable statute. On September 21, 2018, the TFTC filed an appeal against the High Administrative Court's decision. Payment of the TFTC fine is not stayed during the administrative appeals; TOKIN has made installment payments of the fine aggregating to approximately NTD 182.7 million (approximately $5.9 million ) as of June 30, 2019 .    
As of June 30, 2019 , the Company's accrual for TOKIN antitrust and civil litigation claims totaled $26.3 million . This amount includes the best estimate of losses which may result from the ongoing antitrust investigations, civil litigation and claims. However, the actual outcomes could differ from what has been accrued.
