“Integer delivered another quarter of solid year-over-year sales growth, driven by strong performance in our Cardio & Vascular, Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics and Portable Medical, and Non-Medical product lines,” said Joseph Dziedzic, Integer’s president and chief executive officer. “Cash flow generation remains strong and enabled further accelerated debt pay down in the quarter. We are on track to deliver results within our original 2017 guidance after adjusting for the impact of foreign exchange.”

2017 Outlook^(a)
(dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

	GAAP					Non-GAAP(b)(c)
	As Reported		Growth			Adjusted		Growth	Organic Growth
Sales	$1,420 to $1,435		2.5% to 3.5%			$1,420 to $1,435		2.5% to 3.5%	2.5% to 3.6%
Earnings per Diluted Share	$0.60 to $0.80		Favorable			$2.55 - $2.75		(5%) to 3%	9% to 16%
Cash Flow from Operations	~$150		42%

(a) Except as described below, further reconciliations by line item to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measures for Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share, included in our “2017 Outlook” above, are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and visibility of the charges excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure.

(b) Adjusted EPS for 2017 is expected to consist of GAAP Net Income and EPS, excluding items such as intangible amortization ($44 million), IP related litigation costs, and consolidation, acquisition, integration, asset disposition and write-down charges, and loss on extinguishment of debt totaling approximately $90 million. The after-tax impact of these items is estimated to be approximately $62 million, or approximately $1.95 per diluted share.

(c) Organic Sales growth excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the results of Nuvectra prior to its spin-off on March 14, 2016. Organic Adjusted EPS growth excludes the impact of foreign currency reported in other (income) loss, net.

(a) During the first quarter of 2017, we revised the method used to present sales by product line in order to align the legacy Greatbatch and Lake Region Medical methodologies.  We believe the revised presentation will provide improved reporting and better transparency into the operational results of our business and markets.  Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the new product line sales reporting presentation.

(b) Organic Growth for sales is a Non-GAAP measure which excludes the impact of foreign exchange and excludes the results of Nuvectra Corporation (“Nuvectra”) prior to its spin-off on March 14, 2016.  Refer to Table C at the end of this release for a reconciliation of these amounts.

Discussion of Third Quarter Financial Results

• Medical segment sales grew on a reported and organic basis on strength in our Cardio & Vascular and Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics and Portable Medical product-lines.
• Non-Medical segment sales grew on a reported and organic basis as a result of recovery in the energy market and new business wins.
• GAAP profitability metrics improved year-over-year primarily due to reduced spending on integration, restructuring, consolidation, and optimization activities, lower interest expense, and a net gain on our minority investments partially offset by higher incentive compensation costs, and increased IP related litigation costs.
• GAAP and Non-GAAP profitability metrics reflect solid sales growth and margin expansion from productivity in operations, offset by higher incentive compensation costs, a mix shift to lower margin product-lines, and unfavorable foreign currency impacts on intercompany loans.
• Organic non-GAAP profitability metrics exclude the negative effect of foreign currency exchange losses, which are reported in other (income) loss, net and are primarily non-cash.

Notes Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to our results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we provide adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA and organic growth rates. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share consist of GAAP amounts adjusted for the following to the extent occurring during the period: (i) acquisition and integration related charges and expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets including inventory step-up amortization, (iii) facility consolidation, optimization, manufacturing transfer and system integration charges, (iv) asset write-down and disposition charges, (v) charges in connection with corporate realignments or a reduction in force, (vi) certain litigation expenses, charges and gains, (vii) unusual or infrequently occurring items, (viii) gain (loss) on cost and equity method investments, (ix) extinguishment of debt charges, (x) the income tax (benefit) related to these adjustments and (xi) certain tax items that are outside the normal provision for the period. Adjusted earnings per diluted share are calculated by dividing adjusted net income by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income (loss) plus (i) the same adjustments as listed above except for items (x) and (xi), (ii) GAAP stock-based compensation, interest expense, and depreciation, (iii) GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes and (iv) cash gains received from cost and equity method investments during the period. To calculate organic sales growth rates, we convert current period sales from local currency to U.S. dollars using the previous periods foreign currency exchange rates and exclude the amount of sales acquired/divested during the period from the current/previous period amounts, respectively. Organic growth rates for Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange gains and losses included in other (income) loss, net. We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and organic growth rates provides important supplemental information to management and investors seeking to understand the financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations.

(a) The difference between pre-tax and net income (loss) amounts is the estimated tax impact related to the respective adjustment. Net income amounts are computed using a 35% U.S. tax rate, and the statutory tax rates in Mexico, Germany, France, Netherlands, Uruguay, Ireland and Switzerland, as adjusted for the existence of net operating losses.  Expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes (i.e. permanent tax differences) are added back at 100%.

(b) In 2013, we filed suit against AVX Corporation alleging they were infringing our intellectual property. Given the complexity and significant costs incurred pursuing this litigation, we are excluding these litigation expenses from adjusted amounts. This matter proceeded to trial during the first quarter of 2016 and a federal jury awarded the Company $37.5 million in damages. To date, no gains have been recognized in connection with this litigation.

(c) During 2017 and 2016, we incurred costs primarily related to the transfer of our Beaverton, OR portable medical and Plymouth, MN vascular manufacturing operations to Tijuana, Mexico, the closure of our Arvada, CO site and the consolidation of our two Galway, Ireland sites.  In addition, 2017 costs also include expenses related to the closure of our Clarence, NY facility.

(d) Reflects acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of Lake Region Medical, which was acquired in October 2015.

(e) Amounts for 2017 primarily include expenses related to our CEO, CFO and Chief Human Resources Officer transitions. Amounts for 2016 primarily include legal and professional fees incurred in connection with the spin-off of Nuvectra, which was completed in March 2016.

(f) Represents debt extinguishment charges in connection with pre-payments made on our Term B Loan Facility during 2017, which are included in interest expense.

(g) Tax adjustments for the 2016 periods include a discrete tax benefit related to certain transaction costs of the Lake Region Medical acquisition and the spin-off of Nuvectra.

(h) The diluted weighted average shares for adjusted EPS for the nine month periods ended September 29, 2017 and September 30, 2016 include 223,000 and 455,000, respectively, of potentially dilutive shares not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares for GAAP diluted EPS purposes because their effect would have been anti-dilutive in that period.

(i) Represents the results of Nuvectra prior to its spin-off on March 14, 2016.
