#### Three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with three months ended March 31, 2017

Net sales decreased $38.6 or 3.5 percent including a net favorable currency impact of $88.6 primarily related to the euro. In addition, prior year net sales were adversely impacted $10.4 related to prior year deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments (Deferred Revenue Adjustments). The following results include the impact of foreign currency and purchase accounting adjustments:

### Segments

- Services net sales increased $19.0 including a net favorable currency impact of $39.9 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $5.2. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $26.1 attributable to lower installation revenue tied to decreased banking systems volumes in the Americas and EMEA.

### (unaudited)

### (in millions, except per share amounts)

- Software net sales increased $9.1 including a net favorable currency impact of $10.2. Excluding the impact of currency, net sales decreased $1.1 primarily related to lower systems volumes in EMEA and AP. This was partially offset by higher banking project volume in the Americas.
- Systems net sales decreased $66.7, including a net favorable currency impact of $38.5 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $5.2. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $110.4 from lower combined systems solutions across the Company. EMEA and Americas were adversely impacted by lower volume throughout the regions and Americas was adversely impacted by supply chain delays as well. The supply chain delays are anticipated to be resolved within the year. Additionally, AP was adversely impacted by lower volume as noted below.

### Geographic Regions

- Americas net sales decreased $50.5 or 12.7 percent primarily as a result of lower systems volume and the associated installation revenue in North America and Brazil combined with the adverse impact of supply chain delays in North America. Additionally, volume in Chile decreased as the electronic security business was divested in the third quarter of 2017.
- EMEA net sales increased $29.0 or 5.2 percent due to a favorable currency impact of $83.0. Excluding the impact of currency, net sales decreased $54.0 primarily attributable to the absence of large banking and retail systems rollouts in Germany as well as lower banking volume in Turkey. Additionally, lower sales in the U.K. contributed to the decrease as a result of the divestiture of the Company’s legacy business on June 30, 2017. This was partially offset by higher retail systems volume in Spain and the Nordics.
- AP net sales decreased $17.1 or 11.8 percent including a favorable currency impact $5.9. Excluding the impact of currency, net sales decreased $23.0 as a result of lower managed services and installation revenue in India and higher prior year banking systems deployments in Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia.

### Solutions

- Banking net sales decreased $50.9 or 6.2 percent including a favorable currency impact of $51.7 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $6.2. Excluding the impact of currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $108.8 primarily due to lower systems volumes and the associated installation activity across the Company.
- Retail net sales increased $12.3 or 4.3 percent percent due to a favorable currency impact of $36.9 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $4.2. Excluding the impact of currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $28.8 due to lower retail systems volume in Germany and the U.K. as well as lower demand for lottery equipment in Brazil.

#### Gross Profit

The following table represents information regarding the Company's gross profit:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |

| Gross margin - systems | 19.4% | 15.4% |  |
| Total gross margin | 22.6% | 22.0% |  |

Services and software gross margin was lower due to software margin declines across AP and EMEA from a higher volume of lower margin business and increased professional services costs. Services margin was adversely impacted by lower margin in the Americas and AP from lower margin services business in China.

### (unaudited)

### (in millions, except per share amounts)

Systems gross margin in the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased primarily as a result of higher purchase accounting adjustments in the prior year of $14.5 and the current year benefit from Brazil indirect tax accrual reversal of $3.7. Deferred Revenue Adjustments included a $5.2 prior year reduction of revenue and $9.3 higher asset amortization.

#### Operating Expenses

The following table represents information regarding the Company's operating expenses:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Selling and administrative expense | $227.9 | $247.0 | (7.7) |
| Research, development and engineering expense | 41.7 | 41.4 | 0.7 |
| Impairment of assets | — | 3.1 | N/M |
| (Gain) loss on sale of assets, net | (7.7) | (0.4) | N/M |
| Total operating expenses | $261.9 | $291.1 | (10.0) |

N/M = Not Meaningful

Selling and administrative expense in the three months ended March 31, 2018, decreased $19.1 primarily from cost reduction initiatives as well as lower non-routine charges of $10.6 and restructuring of $7.1. These decreases were partially offset by an unfavorable currency impact of $21.2.

Non-routine costs in selling and administrative expense of $38.5 and $49.1 were included in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The primary components of the non-routine expenses in the first quarter 2018 pertained to purchase accounting adjustments of $23.8 related to intangible asset amortization and integration costs totaling $14.2. Selling and administrative expense included restructuring charges of $1.3 and $8.4 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Research, development and engineering expense in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was flat including an unfavorable currency impact of $4.0. Excluding the impact of currency, research, development and engineering expense decreased primarily from lower restructuring and non-routine integration cost as well as lower software research, development and engineering expense.

In the three months ended March 31, 2018, the gain on sale of assets was primarily related to the sale of a building in North America of $4.5 and the liquidation of the Barbados operating entity of $3.3.

Operating expense as a percent of net sales in the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 24.6 percent compared with 26.4 percent in the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is related primarily to lower restructuring and non-routine expense inclusive of the previously mentioned gain on sale of a building in North America.

#### Operating Profit

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Operating profit (loss) | $(21.0) | $(48.6) | 56.8 |
| Operating profit margin | (2.0)% | (4.4)% |  |

The operating loss decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 due primarily from decreased operating expenses as a result of lower non-routine and restructuring charges.

#### Other Income (Expense)

The following table represents information regarding the Company's other income (expense), net:

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Interest income | $3.5 | $6.4 | (45.3) |
| Interest expense | (26.0) | (30.8) | 15.6 |
| Foreign exchange gain (loss), net | (1.4) | (3.1) | 54.8 |
| Miscellaneous, net | 1.0 | 1.3 | (23.1) |
| Other income (expense), net | $(22.9) | $(26.2) | 12.6 |

The decrease in interest income in the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with the same period in 2017, was the result of lower average balances and reduced current period rates of short-term investments in Brazil. Interest expense was lower in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same prior-year period due to the favorable impact of refinancing the debt related to the Acquisition. Foreign exchange loss in the three-month period was primarily due to the strengthening of the euro compared to the prior year period.

#### Net Income (Loss)

The following table represents information regarding the Company's net income (loss):

|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net income (loss) | $(63.3) | $(52.2) | 21.3 |
| Percent of net sales | (5.9)% | (4.7)% |  |
| Effective tax rate | (44.2)% | 30.2% |  |

Net loss was $63.3 and $52.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to the reasons described above and the change in income tax (benefit) expense.

The effective tax rate on the net loss was (44.2) percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The tax expense on the loss is due primarily from impacts of the Tax Act, more specifically, impacts related to GILTI on the estimated annual tax rate. The effective tax rate could vary in future periods based on the Company's earnings before taxes and clarifications around the Tax Act.

The effective tax rate on the net loss was 30.2 percent for the three months ended 2017. Companies are required to apply their estimated annual tax rate on a year-to-date basis in each interim period. Companies should not apply the estimated annual tax rate to interim financial results if the estimated annual tax rate is not reliably predictable. In this situation, the interim tax rate should be based on the actual year-to-date results. As of March, 31, 2017, the Company was not able to reasonably estimate the annual effective tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2017, because small fluctuations in the Company's earnings before taxes could have resulted in a material change in the estimated annual tax rate. For this reason, the Company did not believe the estimated annual tax rate would provide a reliable estimate and as a result, the Company computed the interim tax rate based on the actual year-to-date results. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was primarily a result of the jurisdictional income (loss) mix and varying statutory rates in the Company's global footprint.

### Segment Net Sales and Operating Profit Summary

The following tables represent information regarding the segment operating profit metrics exclude the impact of Deferred Revenue Adjustments, restructuring and non-routine charges, by reporting segment, refer to note 20 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details of net sales and segment operating profit:

| Services: | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net sales | $592.2 | $573.2 | 3.3 |
| Segment operating profit (loss) | $73.8 | $81.2 | (9.1) |
| Segment operating profit margin | 12.5% | 14.2% |  |

In the three months ended March 31, 2018, services net sales increased $19.0 or 3.3 percent and included a net favorable currency impact of $39.9 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $5.2. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $26.1 attributable to lower installation revenue tied to decreased banking systems volumes in the Americas and EMEA.

Segment operating profit decreased $7.4 due to lower gross profit corresponding with systems volume declines in the Americas as a result of lower volume and supply chain delays. Additionally, services operating profit was favorably impacted by higher gross profit on maintenance revenue from increased retail systems volume across all regions while total operating expense was flat between years.

| Software: | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net sales | $119.5 | $110.4 | 8.2 |
| Segment operating profit (loss) | $7.4 | $5.3 | 39.6 |
| Segment operating profit margin | 6.2% | 4.8% |  |

In the three months ended March 31, 2018, software net sales increased $9.1 or 8.2 percent including a net favorable currency impact of $10.2. Excluding the impact of currency, net sales decreased $1.1 primarily related to lower systems volumes in EMEA and AP. This was partially offset by higher banking project volume in the Americas.

Segment operating profit increased $2.1 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 due primarily to lower research, development and engineering expenses. Lower research, development and engineering expense was attributable to higher capitalization of software development and cost reduction initiatives.

| Systems: | Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 | 2017 | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Net sales | $352.5 | $419.2 | (15.9) |
| Segment operating profit (loss) | $(25.5) | $(3.9) | N/M |
| Segment operating profit margin | (7.2)% | (0.9)% |  |

In the three months ended March 31, 2018, systems net sales decreased $66.7 or 15.9 percent, including a net favorable currency impact of $38.5 and Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $5.2. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $110.4 from lower combined systems solutions across the Company. EMEA was adversely impacted by lower volume throughout the region and in the Americas, lower volume was a function of supply chain delays. Additionally, AP was adversely impacted by lower volume as previously mentioned in the geographic regions section.

Segment operating loss decreased $21.6 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily due to lower gross profit as a function of lower banking systems volume, specifically in the Americas from supply chain delays as well as AP. Operating expenses increased

from higher research, development and engineering expenses associated with new product development and higher associate related cost.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's total cash and cash availability as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was as follows:

|  | March 31, 2018 | December 31, 2017 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $362.1 | $535.2 |
| Additional cash availability from |  |  |
| Uncommitted lines of credit | 193.9 | 216.9 |
| Revolving Facility | 520.0 | 445.0 |
| Short-term investments | 24.2 | 81.4 |
| Total cash and cash availability | $1,100.2 | $1,278.5 |

Capital resources are obtained from income retained in the business, borrowings under the Company’s committed and uncommitted credit facilities and operating and capital leasing arrangements. Management expects that the Company’s capital resources will be sufficient to finance planned working capital needs, research and development activities, investments in facilities or equipment, pension contributions, the payment of dividends and any repurchases of the Company’s common shares for at least the next 12 months. As of March 31, 2018, $372.4 or 96.4 percent of the Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments reside in international tax jurisdictions. Repatriation of certain international funds could be negatively impacted by potential payments for foreign taxes. The Company has approximately $1,500 of earnings that are available for repatriation with no additional tax expense. Part of the Company’s growth strategy is to pursue acquisitions complementary to the Company's future structure. The Company has made acquisitions in the past and intends to make acquisitions in the future. The Company intends to finance any future acquisitions with either cash and short-term investments, cash provided from operations, borrowings under available credit facilities, proceeds from debt or equity offerings and/or the issuance of common shares.

The following table summarizes the results of the Company's condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31:

| Summary of cash flows: | 2018 | 2017 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Net cash provided (used) by operating activities | $(142.3) | $(66.3) |
| Net cash provided (used) by investing activities | 39.1 | (29.0) |
| Net cash provided (used) by financing activities | (91.4) | (72.5) |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents | 21.5 | 5.2 |
| Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $(173.1) | $(162.6) |

### Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities can fluctuate significantly from period to period as working capital needs and the timing of payments for income taxes, restructuring and integration activities, pension funding and other items impact reported cash flows.

Net cash used by operating activities was $142.3 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase in use of $76.0 from $66.3 for the same period in 2017.

- The net aggregate of trade accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable used $114.0 and $76.1 in operating cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In general, the amount of cash flow provided or used by the aggregate of trade accounts payable, inventories and trade accounts receivable depends upon how effectively the Company manages the cash conversion cycle, which represents the number of days that elapse from the day it pays for the purchase of raw materials and components to the collection of cash from its customers and can be significantly impacted by the timing of collections and payments in a period. Accounts receivable cash use improved compared to prior-year same period primarily due to lower net sales in the Americas. Inventory cash use increased compared to the same period in the prior year and is primarily due to increased inventory in EMEA and Americas for customer projects, as well as the aforementioned supply chain issues. The supply chain issues are primarily resolved and are anticipated to

### (in millions, except per share amounts)

convert to cash within the year. Accounts payable cash use improved primarily related to reduced spending in EMEA and the Americas.

- In the aggregate, the other combined certain assets and liabilities used $18.3 and provided $1.8 of operating cash during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in use was primarily due to a reduction in deferred revenue cash provided by the collection of customer prepayments, mainly on service contracts, compared to the same period in the prior year as well as the timing of payments of VAT in EMEA and the Americas.

The most significant changes in adjustments to net income includes increased depreciation and amortization expense and additional share-based compensation. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $8.5 to $67.1 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $58.6 during the same period in 2017 primarily due to incremental intangible assets amortization expense related to the finalization of purchase accounting. Share-based compensation increased $6.9 to $13.7 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 primarily due to a change in non-substantive vesting terms of certain awards and an increased number of unvested awards granted. Adjustments to net income also includes (gain) loss on sale of assets, net, which consists primarily of the gains from the sale of a building in North America.

### Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $39.1 and a use of $29.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The maturities and purchases of investments primarily relate to short-term investment activity in Brazil. The proceeds from the sale of assets primarily include cash from the sale of a building in North America. The $68.1 change was primarily due to the utilization of short-term investments in Brazil for cash needs across the organization.

### Financing Activities

Net cash used by financing activities was $91.4 and $72.5 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, an increase of $18.9. The change was primarily due to an additional $35.8 in debt repayments, net of borrowings primarily related to payment of the Revolving Facility and lower cash distributions of $15.2 to noncontrolling interests primarily related to Diebold Nixdorf AG which was paid in March 2017. Refer to note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for details of the Company's cash flows related to debt borrowings and repayments.

**Debt** As of March 31, 2018, the Company had various international short-term uncommitted lines of credit with borrowing limits of $213.2. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowings on the short-term uncommitted lines of credit as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 9.16 percent and 9.17 percent, respectively. Short-term uncommitted lines mature in less than one year. The amount available under the short-term uncommitted lines at March 31, 2018 was $193.9.

The Credit Agreement includes the Revolving Facility in the amount of up to $520.0 and the Term Loan A Facility in the amount of up to $230.0. On December 23, 2020, the Term Loan A Facility will mature and the Revolving Facility will automatically terminate. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding Revolving Facility borrowings as of December 31, 2017 was 3.63 percent which is variable based on the LIBOR. The amount available under the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2018 was $520.0.

The Company has $400.0 aggregate principal amount of 2024 Senior Notes which are and will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries and expire in 2024.

On May 9, 2017, the Company entered into the Incremental Agreement which reduced the initial Term Loan B Facility of a $1,000.0 U.S. dollar-denominated tranche to $475.0. The reduction was funded using the $250.0 proceeds drawn from the Delayed Draw Term Loan A Facility, a replacement of $70.0 with Term Loan B Facility - Euro and previous principal payments.

In connection with the Incremental Agreement, the interest rate with respect to the Term Loan B Facility - USD is based on, at the Company’s option, adjusted LIBOR plus 2.75 percent (with a floor of 0.00 percent) or ABR plus 1.75 percent (with an ABR floor of 1.00 percent) and the interest rate with respect to the Term Loan B Facility - Euro is based on adjusted EURIBOR plus 3.00 percent (with a floor of 0.00 percent).

### (in millions, except per share amounts)

The Incremental Amendment also renewed the repricing premium of 1.00 percent in relation to the Term Loan B Facility, removed the requirement to prepay the Repriced Dollar Term Loan and the repriced Euro Term Loan upon any asset sale or casualty event if the Company is below a Total Net Leverage Ratio of 2.5:1.0 on a pro forma basis for such asset sale or casualty event and provides additional restricted payments and investment carveouts in regards to certain assets acquired. All other material provisions under the Credit Agreement were unchanged.

On April 17, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement which modified its calculation of total net debt and its maximum allowable Leverage Ratio. The Credit Agreement financial covenant ratios at March 31, 2018 are as follows:

- a maximum Leverage Ratio of 4.25 to 1.00 as of March 31, 2018 (increasing to 4.75 on June 30, 2018, reducing to 4.50 on December 31, 2018, and then further reduced to 4.25 on December 31, 2019); and
- a minimum Coverage Ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00

Below is a summary of financing and replacement facilities information:

| Financing and Replacement Facilities Credit Agreement facilities | Interest Rate Index and Margin | Maturity/Termination Dates | Initial Term (Years) |
| --- | --- | --- | ---: |
| Revolving Facility | LIBOR + 1.75% | December 2020 | 5 |
| Term Loan A Facility | LIBOR + 1.75% | December 2020 | 5 |

(i) LIBOR with a floor of 0.0%.

(ii) EURIBOR with a floor of 0.0%.

The debt facilities under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries that are borrowers or guarantors under the Credit Agreement, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens.

The Company's financing agreements contain various financial covenants, including net debt to capitalization, net debt to EBITDA and net interest coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with the financial and other covenants in its debt agreements.

**Dividends** The Company paid dividends of $7.7 and $7.6 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Quarterly dividends were $0.10 per share for the both three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

In May 2018, the Company announced its decision to reallocate future dividend funds towards debt reduction and other capital resource needs.

**Contractual Obligations** In the first three months ended of 2017, the Company entered into purchase commitments due within one year for materials through contract manufacturing agreements for a total negotiated price. At March 31, 2018, the Company had purchase commitments due within one year totaling $3.5 for materials through contract manufacturing agreements at negotiated prices.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** The Company enters into various arrangements not recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that have or could have an effect on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. The principal off-balance sheet arrangements that the Company enters into are guarantees, operating leases and sales of finance receivables. The Company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit through various financial institutions to suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers.

The Company records these sales by removing finance receivables from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recording gains and losses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

### Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include revenue recognition, the valuation of trade, finance lease receivables, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, guarantee obligations and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and post-retirement benefits and customer incentives, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management monitors the economic conditions and other factors and will adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

Management believes there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2018 to the items that the Company disclosed as its critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

## Market risk

As filed, 1,676 characters.

On August 15, 2016, the Company designated its €350.0 euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility as a net investment hedge of its investments in certain subsidiaries that use the euro as their functional currency in order to reduce volatility in stockholders' equity caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the euro with respect to the U.S. dollar. Effectiveness is assessed at least quarterly by confirming that the respective designated net investments' net equity balances at the beginning of any period collectively continues to equal or exceed the balance outstanding on the Company's euro-denominated term loan. Changes in value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI. When the respective net investments are sold or substantially liquidated, the balance of the cumulative translation adjustment in AOCI will be reclassified into earnings. The net gain (loss) recognized in AOCI on net investment hedge foreign currency borrowings was $(5.8) and $(6.1) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. On March 30, 2017, the Company de-designated €130.6 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility and on May 9, 2017, the Company designated an additional €66.8 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility as a result of its repricing described under note 11. On September 21, 2017, the Company de-designated €100.0 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility.
