Crawley, West Sussex, United Kingdom — July 30, 2013 — Edwards Group Limited (NASDAQ:EVAC) (“Edwards” or the “Company”) announced results of its operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Jim Gentilcore, CEO of Edwards said: “We are very pleased with the strong growth achieved in the second quarter, which exceeded the guidance we provided on April 30, 2013. There has been good momentum across the business, and in semiconductor sales in particular. This included notable activity in the US from one of our largest semiconductor customers, along with strong Flat Panel revenues and a record quarter from Service.

It is still too early to judge the degree to which these orders reflect pull-ins from the second half, or are incremental orders, but the momentum we have seen in the business in Q2 has remained robust through the first few weeks of the third quarter. Over the past year we have worked hard to position the business to best manage changing market conditions, ensuring significant operational flexibility to cope with both down and up phases of the cycle. ”

David Smith, Chief Financial Officer, said, “This was a very good quarter for Edwards, with all financial metrics above guidance, a continued recovery in adjusted EBITDA margin which exceeded 22%, and significant cash generation at over £41 million, compared to our recent run rate of closer to £20 million. Looking out to the third quarter, we anticipate revenue of £160 million to £175 million and Adjusted net income of £17 million to £22 million, reflecting the continued momentum in the business.”

On a sequential quarterly basis, revenue increased 13.8% to £164.1 million (Q1 2013: £144.2 million). The company recorded net income of £27.0 million, or 23.91 pence per diluted share (Q1 2013: £17.4 million net loss, or 15.42 pence loss per diluted share) due to increased revenue driving higher margins and the absence of significant exchange movements on the end-of-quarter revaluation of long term loans.

Adjusted net income grew by 59.3% to £17.2 million, or 15.23 pence per diluted share (Q1 2013: £10.8 million or 9.57 pence per diluted share), due to increased revenue helping drive higher operating margins. Adjusted EBITDA(3) increased to £36.2 million or 22.1% of revenue (Q1 2013: £28.8 million or 20.0% of revenue) and gross margin rose by 2.1 percentage points to 38.3%.

When compared to the second quarter of the prior year, revenue increased 1.4% from £161.9 million to £164.1 million, helped by recovery in Emerging Technology and higher Service revenues. Adjusted net income decreased from £17.3 million to £17.2 million or 16.09 pence to 15.23 pence per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA increased from £35.1 million to £36.2 million. Gross margin increased by 0.4 percentage points to 38.3%.

			%			%

Semiconductor	66.4	66.4	0	%	52.0	27.7	%

Semiconductor revenues equaled the strong performance of the prior year and were up nearly 28% on the prior quarter. The momentum seen in the first quarter continued, with the US being the strongest region. Logic and Memory saw a notable increase in activity, along with OEM revenues. These all recorded significant sequential rises, with Logic and OEM revenues also higher than the prior year. Foundry performed robustly but saw a marginal decline after a strong first quarter.

General Vacuum was down 8.1% on what was the peak quarter in the prior year, but increased 5.7% on the prior quarter. This included positive contributions from the Industrial and Process sub-sectors, the latter helped by growing sales of CXS pumps for chemical applications. Scientific revenues were down on the prior year most notably in Asia, while the R&D sub-sector was seasonally impacted by the budget year-end for many Japanese institutions, but was up 7% on the prior year due to strength in US and Europe.

Emerging Technology delivered strong gains over the prior year, up 46% over the prior year and 4.3% above the prior quarter. The main contributor was FPD sales which continued to be at Q1’s high levels, in particular from China. These were supported by a modest recovery from very low levels in Solar revenues in Europe.

Service revenues grew 2.9% compared to the prior year period and rose 6.9% from the prior quarter, delivering a record quarterly result. This was again supported by growth in China, and in Taiwan where a combination of high utilization and a fab relocation project at a major customer increased service activities. As well as strong semiconductor-related activity in the US and Asia, Europe saw an increase in GV-related service business, despite the challenging macro environment.

Additional Quarterly Financial Information

Cost of sales for the second quarter was £101.2 million, an increase of £0.7 million compared to the prior year period. Gross profit margin was up 0.4 percentage points on the prior year and up 2.1 percentage points on the prior quarter at 38.3%.

Sales, general and administrative expenses were £26.0 million, an increase of £1.3 million compared to the prior year period, mainly due to an increase in performance related bonus costs. Total spending on research and development before capitalization was £7.0 million, equating to 4.3% of revenue, with absolute spend decreasing by £0.7 million compared to the prior year period. Restructuring and transaction costs released (see comment on release of early retirement provision below) totaled £16.0 million.

The Company’s ending cash and cash equivalents balance at June 30, 2013 was £109.1 million (Q1 2013: £94.7 million). During the second quarter, the Company generated £46.6 million in cash from operations. Management operating cash flow was strong at £41.9 million in the second quarter of 2013, a 116% cash conversion, up £22.8 million from the prior year period (Q2 2012: £19.1 million) helped by improvements in net working capital. Inventory levels were stable at £93.1 million, equivalent to 96 days (Q1 2013: £93.2 million, 105 days). Cash used in investing activities totaled £6.8 million, due to continued investment in R&D, routine capex actions across manufacturing sites and the China/Taiwan projects.

The Company’s indebtedness at June 30, 2013 decreased by £15.7 million in the quarter to £358.0 million, due to a repayment of $24.4 million (£16.1 million) partly offset by minor foreign exchange revaluations. Overall, the Company’s net debt decreased by £30.1 million to £246.8 million with a net leverage ratio of 2.2x.

Following the recent debt refinancing, the Company completed a review of its inter-subsidiary funding and concluded that a number of intercompany loans were long term in nature and would not be repaid in the foreseeable future. Consequently they will be treated as net investments in subsidiaries which is a similar method to the treatment of intercompany equity investments. One consequence is that foreign exchange gains or losses will be recognized within Other comprehensive income rather than as Finance income and costs.

The Company recorded a non cash net tax charge of £7.7 million for the quarter, which equates to 22.2% of income before taxes.

Early Retirement Obligation Provision

In 2012, the UK High Court clarified the transfer of early retirement benefits and the assumed liability for enhancements to an early retirement pension, through its judgment in the Procter & Gamble v SCA case. Edwards holds a provision with respect to the Company’s constructive obligations in the Group’s capacity as employer of transferring employees from the BOC Group in 2007.

Edwards did not update its provision in 2012 as the case remained subject to appeal. The appeal has now been dropped and accordingly the Company’s provision has been updated to reflect the change in case law from the initial judgment in 2012 and consistent with management’s historic treatment of this issue. The result is to record an exceptional benefit of £17.1 million.

Business Developments in Q2 2013

Edwards continued to actively pursue a number of strategic initiatives during the second quarter. Within Semiconductor, it became a founder member of the F450C consortium of facility companies created to address the complex development and infrastructure requirements for next-generation 450mm semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities.

Edwards also won its second consecutive annual supplier excellence award by the leading OEM, Lam Research, one of only six suppliers to receive this prestigious accolade. In addition Edwards formally launched a new integrated point-of-use pump for load lock and transfer chamber applications on a key OEM manufacturing platform; a low-power pump, also for semiconductor applications; and an nXDS scroll pump variant for harsh chemical applications.

Within General Vacuum, the recently launched CXS pump enjoyed positive traction in Europe. The business also won competitive tenders for a number of projects, including a number of steel degassing projects and replacing a competitor on a leading Mass Spectrometer from a major European scientific OEM. In Russia, Edwards continued its run of mandate wins having been awarded the tender to supply pumps to the Russian Government Program “First to Mars” Space Simulation Application.

On a corporate level, Edwards held a ground breaking ceremony in May at the start of building works on its new manufacturing facility in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China. The new facility will initially cover an area of 13,000m2, and will be the global manufacturing centre for general industrial pumps and boosters, and a local centre for the manufacture of specific pumps and systems for the China market. Around 200 people will be employed in the initial phase and construction is targeted for completion in the second half of 2014.

There was also progress in Xian, China on preparing for the new service centre, and in Taiwan where building modifications were completed to facilitate greater product localization. In Europe, a new regional distribution centre for the service business came on stream, and preparations are well underway for further relocation in Q3 of the R&D teams to the upgraded Global Technology Centre in Burgess Hill.

Guidance

For the third quarter of 2013, Edwards anticipates revenue of £160 million to £175 million reflecting continued sales momentum within semiconductor and flat panel display. The company expects to achieve Adjusted net income of £17 million to £22 million, or 15 pence to 19 pence per fully diluted share.

For the purpose of calculating Adjusted net income per share in the third quarter of 2013, the Company assumes a weighted average of 112,919,230 fully diluted shares outstanding.

Details of all line items to reconcile the non—GAAP measure, Adjusted net income, to the most comparable GAAP measure, net income, for the three months ended September 30, 2013 are not reasonably available at this time. The calculation of currency translation gain/(loss) on external and intra—group debt is calculated using the closing mid-point spot rate of £1.00 to US$1.5167 at 4:00 PM (London time) on June 30, 2013.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Management operating cash flow are not measures of financial performance under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with IFRS. Further, because Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Management operating cash flow (or similar measures) may vary among companies and industries, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure. In addition, management believes it is useful for investors because it is used in the calculation of applicable interest rates, mandatory prepayments and certain covenant baskets under the First Lien Credit Agreement.

The Company believes Adjusted net income provides investors with helpful information with respect to the performance of the Company’s operations and management uses Adjusted net income to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Adjusted net income is not a measure of liquidity.

Management uses Management operating cash flow, which is derived from Adjusted EBITDA, to understand the factors that impact cash flow generated by operations, absent various exceptional items that effect cash generation and as a measure to help allocate resources. In addition, management believes Management operating cash flow is useful to investors as it provides them with additional information about the Company’s performance. Management operating cash flow is not a measure of liquidity.

Additional Information and Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

Edwards Group Limited was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 10, 2012. To facilitate the issuing of ADSs on NASDAQ, on April 5, 2012, the entire issued share capital of Edwards Holdco Limited was acquired by Edwards Group Limited and implemented by way of a Scheme of Arrangement. As a result, Edwards Group Limited owns all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Edwards Holdco Limited. Prior to the share offering the Company conducted its business solely through Edwards Group plc (now known as Edwards Holdco Limited) and its subsidiaries.

Subsequent to the restructuring, Edwards Group Limited has become the parent of Edwards Holdco Limited and its subsidiaries. Edwards Group Limited is a Cayman Islands exempt company incorporated with limited liability. Edwards Group Limited is resident for tax purposes in the United Kingdom.

The Quarterly Financial Report for the three months ended June 30, 2013 has been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements of Edwards Group Ltd for the year ended December 31, 2012 and includes all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the information for the quarters presented. The Financial Statements are stated in pounds sterling (GBP). The Quarterly Financial Report is unaudited.

8. Long Term Debt

On March 26, 2013, Edwards entered into an amendment and restatement agreement to the First Lien Credit Agreement. The amendment, among other things, refinanced and replaced the Company’s existing credit facilities with a $560 million term loan facility and a $90 million revolving facility which is undrawn, and extended the maturity date of the term loan facility and the revolving facility to March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2018, respectively. Edwards incurred arrangement fees with respect to the facilities of £6.5 million (USD 9.8 million). In connection with the amendment the Company repaid an $11.5 million tranche of the term loan due in May 2014 and $6.6 million of the original loan.

On May 31, 2013, the Company repaid a further tranche of £15.2 million (USD 23.0 million) of the term loan and on June 28, 2013 made a scheduled repayment of £0.9 million (USD 1.4 million).

As a result of extending and amending the First Lien Agreement the Company took the opportunity to review its internal subsidiary funding arrangements. As the Group does not have any plans to repay certain intercompany loans, which are long term in nature, to reflect this the Company has changed the treatment of these loans to be net investments in foreign operations. This means the loans from the Group’s main UK subsidiary company Edwards Limited to each of Edwards Korea and Edwards Japan and the loan from Edwards Japan to Edwards Limited will be treated in a similar method to Intercompany equity investments. One consequence is that any foreign exchange gains or losses will be dealt with in Other comprehensive income rather than included in Finance income and costs in the Income Statement. Foreign exchange gains or losses on intercompany loans will continue to be excluded from Adjusted Net Income.

On March 26, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement agreement to the First Lien Credit Agreement. The amendment in March 2013 replaced Proforma Adjusted EBITDA as defined in the previous version of the agreement with Adjusted EBITDA as defined by the Company and used in this document. The principal difference is that Proforma Adjusted EBITDA excluded the capitalization of Development Expenditure. Reporting periods prior to Q1 2013 have not been restated.
