Ingevity Corporation

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Background

Ingevity Corporation ("Ingevity," "we," "us" or "our") is a leading global manufacturer of specialty chemicals and high performance activated carbon materials. Ingevity participates in attractive, higher growth sectors of the global specialty chemicals industry. Our specialty chemicals products serve as critical inputs used in a variety of high performance applications, primarily in three product families: pavement technologies, oilfield technologies and industrial specialties. We are also the leading global manufacturer of activated carbon used in gasoline vapor emission control systems in cars, trucks, motorcycles and boats, with over 750 million units installed globally over the 30-year history of this business. We report in two business segments, Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals.

The Performance Materials segment primarily produces automotive activated carbon products used in gasoline vapor emission control systems in cars, trucks, motorcycles and boats. The carbon products capture and store gasoline vapor emissions that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere as volatile organic compounds which contain hazardous air pollutants. The stored vapors are then largely purged from the carbon and directed to the engine where they are used as supplemental power for the vehicle. The segment also produces a number of other carbon products for food, water, beverage and chemical purification. The Performance Materials segment serves customers globally from its manufacturing operations in the United States and China.

The Performance Chemicals segment develops, manufactures and sells a wide range of specialty chemicals primarily derived from co-products of the kraft pulping process. Products include performance chemicals derived from pine chemicals used in asphalt paving, oilfield technologies and other diverse industrial specialty applications such as adhesives, agrochemical dispersants, publication inks, lubricants and petroleum. The Performance Chemicals segment serves customers globally from its manufacturing operations in the United States.

Separation and Distribution

On May 15, 2016 (the "Distribution Date"), we completed the previously announced separation of Ingevity from WestRock Company (“WestRock”) (herein referred to as the "Separation"). The Separation was completed by way of a distribution of all of the then outstanding shares of common stock of Ingevity through a dividend in kind of Ingevity's common stock (par value $0.01 ) to holders of record of WestRock common stock (par value $0.01 ) as of the close of business on May 4, 2016 (the "Record Date"). Ingevity's common stock began "regular-way" trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on May 16, 2016 under the symbol "NGVT".

Note 2: Basis of Consolidation and Presentation

Ingevity did not operate as a separate, stand-alone entity for the full three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016. Our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 as well as our Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 have been prepared on a “carve out” basis for the periods and dates prior to the Separation on May 15, 2016.

Prior to the Separation, Ingevity's operations were included in WestRock's financial results and were comprised of certain WestRock wholly owned legal entities for which Ingevity was the sole business and components of legal entities in which Ingevity operated in conjunction with other WestRock businesses. For periods prior to May 15, 2016, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared from WestRock's historical accounting records and are presented on a stand-alone basis as if Ingevity's business operations had been conducted independently from WestRock. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the historical operations, assets and liabilities of the legal entities that comprised the Ingevity business.

In all periods presented within these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Ingevity and subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. If Ingevity's ownership is less than 100 percent, the outside stockholders' interests are shown as noncontrolling interests. In all periods presented, the noncontrolling interest reported within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements represents the 30 percent ownership interest held by a third party U.S.-based company in our consolidated Purification Cellutions LLC legal entity. Purification Cellutions LLC is the legal entity that owns the technology associated with, and manufactures, our structured honeycomb products within our Performance Materials segment.

Ingevity Corporation

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have not been audited. However, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been made. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) applied consistently with those used in the preparation of the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , collectively referred to as the “Annual Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Annual Report").

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements presented in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The consolidated results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the 2016 Annual Report.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

Note 3: Correction to previously issued financial statements

During 2016, we identified various errors related to our previously issued annual and interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Specifically, in the first quarter of 2016, we determined that $3.3 million of cumulative intercompany profit in inventory had not been eliminated in prior years. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we also identified errors related to the understatement of accruals for services rendered in prior years, as well as errors related to the timing for which revenue has been previously recognized. A cash flow reclassification error decreased 2014 cash flow from operating activities and increased cash flow from investing activities by $6.0 million and was also corrected as part of this revision.

The cumulative impact of the errors identified in 2016 had resulted in the overstatement of pre-tax and net income of $1.6 million and $1.0 million in 2015 and $0.9 million and $0.6 million in 2014, and a cumulative impact to net parent investment of $2.5 million as of January 1, 2014. In addition, such errors resulted in the $9.4 million and $5.5 million overstatement of revenue in 2015 and 2014, respectively. Although Ingevity’s management has determined that the impact of such errors is immaterial to all previously issued financial statements, we revised the previously issued financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, as shown in our 2016 Annual Report, and those corrections are also reflected for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 in the tables below.

Note 4: New accounting guidance

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-09 "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting", which provided clarity on which changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards require an entity to apply the modification accounting provisions required in Topic 718. We have early adopted this new standard during our second quarter of 2017. The impact of adoption did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost." The amendment in this new standard requires the service cost component to be presented separate from the other components of net benefit cost. Service cost will be presented with other employee compensation costs within operations. The other components of net benefit cost, such as interest cost, amortization of prior service cost, and gains or losses, are required to be separately presented outside of operations, if income or loss from operations is presented. Of the components of net periodic benefit cost, only the service cost component will be eligible for asset capitalization. We have early adopted this new standard during our first quarter of 2017 on a retrospective basis. The impact of adoption did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on restricted cash in ASU 2016-18 "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash." The new guidance clarifies the guidance on the cash flow classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flow. We have early adopted this new standard during our first quarter of 2017. The impact of adoption did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on tax accounting for intra-entity transfers of assets in ASU 2016-16 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." The new guidance requires that entities recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than when the asset is sold to an outside party. W e have early adopted this new standard during our first quarter of 2017. The impact of adoption did not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued its new lease accounting guidance in ASU 2016-02 "Leases." Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of these provisions.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 which is codified in ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and supersedes both the revenue recognition requirement to ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition” and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the five steps set forth in ASC 606. An entity must also disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative information about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. We expect to adopt these provisions on January 1, 2018, including interim periods subsequent to the adoption date, which can be applied using a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. Since the issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several amendments which clarify certain points in the new Topic 606-Revenue from Contracts with Customers, including ASU 2016-08 ("Principal versus Agent Considerations - Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net"), ASU 2016-10 ("Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing"), ASU 2016-11 ("Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting"), ASU 2016-12 ("Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients") and ASU 2016-20 ("Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606.") We anticipate adopting all of these standards at the same time effective January 1, 2018. We have begun our initial assessment of the impact that ASU 2014-09 and subsequent amendments will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures. Based upon the results of our initial assessment thus far, we have tentatively decided to adopt this new standard under the modified retrospective approach which results in the recognition of the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity. We are still evaluating the impact to our financial statements and disclosures.

All other issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 5: Fair value measurements

The following information is presented for assets and liabilities that are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value measured on a recurring basis. There were no assets recorded at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2016.

Included within "Accrued expenses" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. This amount represents an amount due to WestRock associated with WestRock equity awards held by Ingevity employees post Separation. In accordance with the Employee Matters Agreement between Ingevity and WestRock entered into in connection with the Separation, we are required to reimburse WestRock the fair market value of awards on the day Ingevity employees exercise their awards. The expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.1 million and $0.3 million , respectively.

At June 30, 2017 , the book value of capital lease obligations was $80.0 million and the fair value was $90.3 million . The fair value of our capital lease obligations is based on the period-end quoted market prices for the obligations, using Level 1 inputs. The carrying amount of our long-term debt is $383.5 million as of June 30, 2017 . The carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the outstanding debt based on the variable interest rate of the debt. At June 30, 2017 , the book value of our restricted investment was $70.4 million , and the fair value was $68.1 million , based on Level 1 inputs.

Share Repurchases

On February 20, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100 million of our common stock. The repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price targets and may be suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions at the discretion of management based on its evaluation of prevailing market conditions and other factors.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 , we repurchased 12,400 shares of our common stock at a weighted average cost per share of $57.88 . At June 30, 2017 , $99.3 million remained unused under our Board-authorized repurchase program. We record shares of common stock repurchased at cost as treasury stock, resulting in a reduction of stockholders’ equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the treasury shares are contributed under our employee benefit plans or issued for option exercises, we use a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method for determining cost. The difference between the cost of the shares and the market price at the time of contribution to an employee benefit plan is added to or deducted from the related capital in excess of par value of common stock.

Note 11: Transactions with WestRock and related-parties

For periods prior to May 15, 2016, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allocated expenses associated with centralized WestRock support functions including legal, accounting, tax, treasury, internal audit, information

technology, human resources and other services. The costs associated with these functions generally include all payroll and benefit costs as well as related overhead costs. For periods prior to May 15, 2016, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements also include allocated costs associated with WestRock’s office facilities, corporate insurance coverage and medical, pension, post-retirement and other health plan costs attributed to Ingevity’s employees participating in WestRock’s sponsored plans. Allocations are generally based on a number of utilization measures including employee count and proportionate effort. In situations in which determinations based on utilization are impracticable, WestRock and Ingevity used other methods and criteria such as net sales which are believed to result in reasonable estimates of costs attributable to Ingevity. All such amounts have been assumed to have been immediately settled by Ingevity to WestRock in the period in which the costs were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Such amounts are included in Net cash provided by operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

We believe the related-party allocations for periods included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for periods prior to May 15, 2016 have been made on a reasonable basis. However, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations that would have been obtained if Ingevity had operated as a separate entity during the periods presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if Ingevity had been a stand-alone business would depend on a number of factors, including organizational structure and what functions were outsourced or performed by employees, as well as strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure. Consequently, Ingevity’s future earnings may include items of income and expense that are materially different from what is included in these Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for periods prior to May 15, 2016. Accordingly, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of Ingevity’s future results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations prior to May 15, 2016, include allocations from WestRock as summarized below:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
In millions	2017		2016		2017		2016
Cost of sales	$	—	$	1.4	$	—	$	5.7

Interest expense, net	—		3.4		—		7.2
Total allocated cost ⁽¹⁾	$	—	$	7.0	$	—	$	19.4

_______________


(1)	Allocated costs represent costs necessary to support Ingevity's operations which include governance and corporate functions such as information technology, accounting, human resources, accounts payable and other direct services including the interest on WestRock debt incurred to provide such services.

Prior to the Separation on May 15, 2016, we purchased certain raw materials from WestRock that were included in cost of sales. Purchases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $7.5 million and $20.1 million , respectively.

Subsequent to May 15, 2016, Ingevity was no longer a related-party of WestRock. Accordingly, beginning May 16, 2016, sales to WestRock businesses are reflected in net sales in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Purchases of products from WestRock businesses are reflected as inventory in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and prior to payment reflected as accounts payable in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Our ongoing relationship with WestRock is governed by the Separation Agreements, as discussed within Part I, Item 1 of our 2016 Annual Report, including the long-term supply agreement for crude tall oil ("CTO"). Under this agreement, based on WestRock’s current output, we will source approximately 45 percent to 55 percent of our CTO requirements for the maximum operating rates of our facilities. As further described in Note 1, the Separation Agreements govern the relationship between Ingevity and WestRock following the Separation and provide for the allocation of various assets, liabilities, rights and obligations and include arrangements for transition services to be provided by WestRock to Ingevity. In accordance with the Separation Agreements at the day of Separation, we recorded a payable to WestRock in the amount of $16.5 million primarily representing certain trade liabilities previously classified as related-party. This amount was paid to WestRock in 2016.

Note 12: Pension and post-retirement benefits

Prior to the Separation, WestRock offered various long-term benefits to its employees, including Ingevity employees. In these cases, the participation of our employees in these plans is reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as though Ingevity participated in a multi-employer plan with the other businesses of WestRock. For periods prior to the Separation, assets and liabilities of such plans were retained by WestRock. Net periodic benefit costs allocated to Ingevity associated with these pension plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $1.1 million and $3.2 million , respectively.

In conjunction with the Separation, Ingevity assumed retirement obligations, net of contributed assets, consisting of accrued defined benefit obligations earned by Ingevity domestic hourly union employees (referred to as the "Union Hourly defined benefit pension plan"); accrued obligations from a frozen non-qualified defined benefit pension plan for certain salaried and former salaried employees of Ingevity; and other post-retirement medical and life insurance benefits.

The following table summarizes the components of net periodic benefit cost (income):

We did not make any voluntary cash contributions to our Union Hourly defined benefit pension plan in the six months ended June 30, 2017 . There are no required cash contributions to our Union Hourly defined benefit pension plan in 2017 , and we currently have no plans to make any voluntary cash contributions in 2017 .

Note 13: Separation costs

In connection with the Separation as further described in Note 1 and Note 2, we have incurred pre-tax separation costs as shown in the table below. Prior to the Separation, these costs were primarily related to third-party professional fees associated with separation activities and one-time costs of new hires specifically required to separate and stand up Ingevity. Post-Separation, these costs represent legal, information technology and other advisory fees to transition from a division of WestRock to a stand-alone public company.

We record an accrual for severance and other non-recurring costs under the provisions of the relevant accounting guidance. Additionally, in some restructuring plans write-downs of long-lived assets may occur. Two types of assets are impacted: assets to be disposed of by sale and assets to be abandoned. Assets to be disposed of by sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or estimated net proceeds from the sale. Assets to be abandoned with no remaining future service potential are written down to amounts expected to be recovered. The useful life of assets to be abandoned that have a remaining future service potential are adjusted and depreciation is recorded over the adjusted useful life. Below provides detail of the Restructuring and other (income) charges, net incurred.

Detail on the restructuring charges and asset disposal activities is provided below.

2017 activities

In January 2017, we initiated a reorganization as part of an effort to streamline our leadership team, flatten the organization and reduce costs. As a result of this reorganization, we recorded $1.3 million , in severance and other employee-related costs in the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we also recorded $1.1 million and $2.1 million , respectively, of additional miscellaneous exit costs primarily associated with the exit of our Performance Chemicals' manufacturing operations in Palmeira, Santa Catarina, Brazil which began in the fourth quarter of 2016. We expect less than $1 million of additional exit and disposal costs associated with the Palmeira site shutdown during the second half of 2017.

2016 activities

In 2016, the Company announced two restructuring events. The first event was the closure of the Performance Chemicals' derivatives operation in Duque De Caxias, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. As a result of this closure, the Company recorded $0.7 million of additional miscellaneous exit costs during the three months ended June 30, 2016. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a $0.1 million impairment charge on fixed assets and $1.8 million in severance and other employee-related costs.

We also announced a company-wide restructuring to better align our workforce in light of changing macroeconomic and market realities. The restructuring decision resulted in workforce reductions at several of our locations. As a result, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded severance and other employee-related charges of zero and $2.7 million ( $1.9 million related to the Performance Chemicals segment and $0.8 million related to the Performance Materials segment). The Company also recorded a $0.3 million impairment charge on fixed assets in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (related to the Performance Chemicals segment).

Note 15: Income Taxes

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the effective tax rates, including discrete items, were as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Effective tax rate	32.5	%	32.7	%	32.4	%	38.8	%

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

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

As a result of a lapse in statute of limitations, management anticipates a decrease in the accrual for unrecognized tax benefit of $0.4 million in the next twelve months.

(3)

The decrease in the EAETR for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , as compared to June 30, 2016 is primarily due to an increase in forecasted profits from our 70 percent owned joint venture and income mix between domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Our 70 percent owned joint venture is a limited liability company which is treated as a "pass through" entity for tax purposes. Although we consolidate 100 percent of the joint venture, only 70 percent of the earnings are included in the calculation of Ingevity's provision for income taxes.

Note 18: Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period beginning after the Distribution Date. On May 15, 2016, the Distribution Date, each holder of WestRock's common stock received one share of Ingevity's common stock for every six shares of WestRock's common stock held on the Record Date. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number

Net sales and Gross profit

The table below shows the 2017 net sales and percentage variances from 2016:



In millions	2017		Percentage change vs. prior year	Currency effect	Price/Mix	Volume
Net sales - three months ended June 30	$	260.3	6%	(1)%	(1)%	8%
Net sales - six months ended June 30	$	478.8	8%	(1)%	(3)%	12%

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Net sales increase of $14.9 million in 2017 was primarily driven by favorable volume gains of $20.2 million (eight percent of sales) offset by unfavorable pricing and product mix of $3.7 million (one percent of sales). Both of our operating segments contributed to the volume and pricing and product mix impacts during the quarter. Additionally, unfavorable foreign currency exchange primarily impacting our Performance Materials operating segment negatively impacted Net sales by $1.6 million (one percent of sales).

Increased gross profit of $15.1 million was driven primarily by favorable sales volume contributing $9.2 million of additional gross profit and manufacturing productivity of $9.4 million. These favorable operating results were partially offset by a decrease of $2.5 million due to unfavorable pricing and product mix and $1.0 million of foreign currency exchange.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Net sales increased $33.8 million in 2017 driven by favorable volume of $51.4 million (12 percent of sales) partially offset by unfavorable pricing and product mix of $15.1 million (three percent of sales) in addition to unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $2.5 million (one percent of sales), all of which were driven by both operating segments.

Increased gross profit of $22.8 million was driven primarily by favorable sales volume contributing $18.9 million of additional gross profit and favorable manufacturing productivity of $17.9 million. Manufacturing productivity was primarily driven by lower raw material pricing in Performance Chemicals. These favorable operating results were partially offset by a decrease of $11.4 million due to unfavorable pricing and product mix and $2.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.5 million in 2017 compared to 2016. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net sales increased from 9.3 percent to 10.1 percent. The increase in Selling, general, and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher incentive compensation costs driven by the improvements in gross profit as compared to prior period. Increased gross profit translates into higher Adjusted EBITDA which is our primary metric for incentive-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is defined under the section entitled "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" within this Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.7 million in 2017 compared to 2016. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of Net sales increased from 10.2 percent to 10.9 percent. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2017 is consistent with the description above for the three month period.

Research and technical expenses

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Research and technical expenses as a percentage of Net sales remained relatively consistent period over period, increasing $0.1 million in 2017 compared to 2016.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Research and technical expenses as a percentage of Net sales remained relatively consistent period over period, increasing $0.5 million in 2017 compared to 2016.

Separation costs

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Separation costs of $0.2 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, were expenses related to the Separation. See Note 13 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Separation costs of $0.5 million and $11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, were expenses related to the Separation. See Note 13 within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Provision for income taxes

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Our effective tax rate was 32.5% and 32.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Excluding discrete items, the effective rate was 30.9% compared to 32.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. A more detailed description of the change and drivers to the change in the effective tax rate is included in Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Our effective tax rate was 32.4% and 38.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The primary contributors to the change in effective tax rate are due to reduction in separation costs and improvement of the operating results of legal entities with full valuation allowances in 2017 compared to 2016 , both of which are treated as discrete tax items. Excluding discrete items, the effective rate was 31.0% compared to 33.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. A more detailed description of the change and drivers to the change in the effective tax rate is included in Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest was $3.7 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively and $7.7 million and $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Our noncontrolling interest represents the 30 percent ownership interest held by a third-party U.S.-based company in our consolidated Purification Cellutions LLC legal entity. Purification Cellutions LLC manufactures our structured honeycomb products within our Performance Materials segment. Refer to the Performance Materials’ operating profit discussion below within the "Segment Operating Results" section for further discussion of the segment’s performance.

Net income attributable to Ingevity stockholders

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Net income attributable to Ingevity stockholders increased $8.0 million from 2016 to 2017 primarily driven by a $4.5 million reduction of Separation costs and lower Interest expense, net of $2.2 million. Refer to the "Segment Operating Results" section below for a discussion of changes in segment performance.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Net income attributable to Ingevity stockholders increased $17.8 million from 2016 to 2017 primarily driven by a $10.6 million reduction of Separation costs and lower Interest expense, net of $4.3 million. Refer to the "Segment Operating Results" section below for a discussion of changes in segment performance.

Segment Operating Results

In addition to the information discussed above, the following sections discuss the results of operations for each of Ingevity's segments. Our segments are (i) Performance Materials and (ii) Performance Chemicals.

In general, the accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Annual Report.

Net sales - six months ended June 30	$	172.9	20	%	(1	)%	(3	)%	24	%

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Segment net sales for the Performance Materials segment were $89.5 million and $74.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The sales increase in 2017 was primarily driven by $17.1 million (23 percent of sales) in volume improvements in the automotive carbon market due to strong growth in high content vehicle production for sale into the North American automotive market and increased vehicle content due to regulatory adoption, partially offset by $0.9 million (one percent of sales) in unfavorable pricing and mix, and $0.9 million (one percent of sales) of unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Segment operating profit for the Performance Materials segment was $30.7 million and $26.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Segment operating profit increased $4.5 million primarily due to $8.2 million in favorable volume in the automotive carbon application and $1.5 million due to favorable manufacturing productivity. Manufacturing productivity was favorably impacted by higher plant utilization and throughput. The favorable drivers were partially offset by $0.3 million in unfavorable pricing and product mix, higher selling, general and administrative and research and technical costs of $2.6 million and $2.3 million in negative foreign currency exchange impacts in 2017 as compared to 2016.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Segment net sales for the Performance Materials segment were $172.9 million and $144.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The sales increase in 2017 was primarily driven by $34.0 million (24 percent of sales) in volume improvements in the automotive carbon market due to strong growth in high content vehicle production for sale into the North American automotive market and increased vehicle content due to regulatory adoption, partially offset by $3.6 million (three percent of sales) in unfavorable pricing and mix, and $1.8 million (one percent of sales) of unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Segment operating profit for the Performance Materials segment was $60.2 million and $56.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Segment operating profit increased $3.3 million primarily due to $13.9 million in favorable volume in the automotive carbon application. The favorable volume was partially offset by $0.6 million in higher production costs and higher operating costs associated with increased production, $0.6 million in unfavorable pricing and product mix, higher selling, general and administrative and research and technical costs of $5.4 million and $4.0 million in negative foreign currency exchange impacts in 2017 as compared to 2016 partially due to unrealized foreign currency exchange gains associated with intercompany loans in 2016.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Segment net sales for the Performance Chemicals segment were $170.8 million and $171.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The sales decrease was primarily driven by $2.7 million of unfavorable pricing and product mix (two percent of sales) in oilfield technologies ($2.3 million) due to competitive pricing pressure and mix shift in pavement technologies products ($0.5 million) slightly offset by favorable pricing and mix in industrial specialties ($0.1 million). The sales decrease was also driven by $0.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency exchange. These unfavorable drivers were partially offset by favorable volume of $2.9 million (two percent of sales) driven by oilfield technologies ($7.3 million) partially offset by unfavorable volume in industrial specialties ($4.3 million) and pavement technologies ($0.1 million).

Segment operating profit for the Performance Chemicals segment was $26.4 million and $23.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Segment operating profit increased by $3.4 million primarily due to $1.0 million in favorable volume, $7.0 million due to favorable manufacturing productivity. Manufacturing productivity was favorably impacted by lower raw material pricing and the cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2016. These favorable operating results were partially offset by $2.2 million of unfavorable pricing and product mix, $0.9 million in higher selling, general and administrative and research and technical costs and $1.5 million of unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. 2016

Segment net sales for the Performance Chemicals segment were $305.9 million and $300.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The sales increase was primarily driven by favorable volume of $17.2 million (six percent of sales) driven by industrial specialties ($3.8 million) and oilfield technologies ($16.3 million) partially offset by unfavorable volume in pavement technologies ($2.9 million). These favorable volumes were partially offset by $11.4 million of unfavorable pricing and product mix (four percent of sales) in certain industrial specialties ($6.0 million) and oilfield technologies ($6.3 million) products due to competitive pricing pressure slightly offset by favorable pricing and mix in pavement technologies ($0.9 million). The favorable drivers were also partially offset by $0.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Segment operating profit for the Performance Chemicals segment was $36.8 million and $31.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Segment operating profit increased by $5.2 million primarily due to $5.0 million in favorable volume and $18.0 million due to favorable manufacturing productivity. Manufacturing productivity was favorably impacted by lower raw material pricing and the cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2016. These favorable operating results were partially offset by $10.8 million of unfavorable pricing and product mix, $2.1 million in higher selling, general and administrative and research and technical costs and $4.9 million of unfavorable foreign currency exchange primarily due to unrealized foreign currency exchange gains associated with intercompany loans in 2016.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Ingevity has presented certain financial measures, defined below, which have not been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and has provided a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. These financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The below financial measures are utilized by management as measures of profitability.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide management as well as investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate the performance of the business, because such measures, when viewed together with our financial results computed in accordance with GAAP, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our historical financial performance and projected future results. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Segment EBITDA are useful measures because they exclude the effects of investment activities as well as non-operating activities.

Ingevity uses the following non-GAAP measures: Adjusted EBITDA and Segment EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income plus provision for income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, separation costs and restructuring and other (income) charges. Segment EBITDA is defined as segment operating profit plus depreciation and amortization.

These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with GAAP and investors should consider the limitations associated with these non-GAAP measures, including the potential lack of comparability of these measures from one company to another. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Segment EBITDA to net income and segment operating profit, respectively, are set forth within this section.

Total Company Outlook and Fiscal Year 2017 Guidance

We expect to deliver fiscal year 2017 Net sales of between $940 million to $955 million. For revenue, favorable volume in Performance Materials and in certain Performance Chemicals applications are expected to be partially offset by negative pricing pressure in Performance Chemicals industrial specialties applications as compared to prior year.

We expect to deliver fiscal year 2017 Adjusted EBITDA of between $220 million to $230 million. 2017 Adjusted EBITDA is expected to grow in the high single to low double digit range as compared to prior year. This is driven by mix improvement due to growth in our higher margin Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals pavement technologies applications, volume growth in oilfield technologies and industrial specialties, favorable year over year CTO costs, partially offset by continued pricing pressure in oilfield technologies and industrial specialties. Some risks to the 2017 outlook include reductions in U.S. light vehicle sales from the 2016 record, higher non-CTO raw materials costs associated with higher oil prices, a shift towards smaller vehicles in the U.S. (versus the 2016 shift towards light-trucks), lower automotive product sales in China driven by a reduction in tax incentives versus 2016, lower oil prices and a reduction in oil drilling and production in oilfield technologies, and increased volume and pricing pressure in industrial specialties. A reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA as projected for 2017 is not provided because we do not forecast Net Income as we cannot, without unreasonable effort, estimate or predict with certainty various components of Net Income. These components include restructuring and other income (charges) to be incurred in 2017 as well as the related tax impacts of these items. Additionally, discrete tax items could drive variability in our projected effective tax rate. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. Further, in the future other items with similar characteristics to those currently included in Adjusted EBITDA, that have a similar impact on comparability of periods, and which are not known at this time, may exist and impact Net income (loss) attributable to Ingevity stockholders and Adjusted EBITDA.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary source of liquidity for Ingevity’s business is the cash flow provided by operations. We expect our cash flow provided by operations combined with cash on hand and available capacity under our revolving credit facility to be sufficient to meet our working capital needs. Over the next twelve months, we expect to make interest payments, capital expenditures, principal repayments and restructuring payments. We believe these sources will be sufficient to fund our planned operations and meet our interest and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. As of June 30, 2017 , our available capacity under our revolving credit facility is $297.0 million .

Prior to the Separation, cash flow provided by operations had historically been transferred to WestRock to support its overall cash management strategy. Transfers of cash to and from WestRock prior to the Separation have been reflected in Net Parent Investment in the historical Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Cash Flows and Statements of Stockholders' Equity.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $40.6 million at June 30, 2017 . Management continuously monitors deposit concentrations and the credit quality of the financial institutions that hold Ingevity's cash and cash equivalents, as well as the credit quality of its insurance providers, customers and key suppliers.

Due to the global nature of our operations, a portion of our cash is held outside the United States. The cash and cash equivalents balance at June 30, 2017 included $20.7 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. Cash and earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are generally used to finance our foreign operations and capital expenditures. We believe that our foreign holdings of cash will not have a material adverse impact on our U.S. liquidity. Management does not currently expect to repatriate cash earnings from our foreign operations in order to fund U.S. operations. If these earnings were distributed, such amounts would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the statutory rate less the available foreign tax credits, if any, and potentially subject to withholding taxes in the various jurisdictions. The potential tax implications of the repatriation of unremitted earnings are driven by facts at the time of distribution, therefore, it is not practicable to estimate the income tax liabilities that might be incurred if such cash and earnings were repatriated to the United States.

Cash flow comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016



	Six Months Ended June 30,
In millions	2017			2016
Net cash provided (used) by operating activities	$	52.7		$	36.2
Net cash provided (used) by investing activities	(27.5		)	(91.3		)
Net cash provided (used) by financing activities	(15.1		)	78.8

Cash flows provided (used) by operating activities

During the first six months of 2017, cash flow provided by operations increased primarily due to higher net income partially offset by working capital increases compared to 2016. Working capital increases in the first six months of 2017 when compared to the first six months of 2016 are primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable and decreases in accounts payable. Below provides a description of the changes to working capital during 2017 (i.e. current assets and current liabilities).

Current Assets and Liabilities



In millions	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Cash and cash equivalents	$	40.6	$	30.5
Accounts receivable, net	113.1		89.8
Inventories, net	154.6		151.2
Prepaid and other current assets	24.0		23.7
Total current assets	$	332.3	$	295.2

Current assets as of June 30, 2017 increased $37.1 million compared to December 31, 2016 primarily due to increases in accounts receivable. Accounts receivable, net as of June 30, 2017 increased $23.3 million consistent with the higher revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Cash and cash equivalents increased $10.1 million while Inventories, net also increased by $3.4 million .



In millions	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Accounts payable	$	75.9	$	79.2
Accrued expenses	18.5		19.3
Accrued payroll and employee benefits	23.6		25.6
Current maturities of long-term debt	15.0		7.5
Income taxes payable	0.5		5.3
Total current liabilities	$	133.5	$	136.9

Current liabilities as of June 30, 2017 decreased by $3.4 million compared to December 31, 2016 primarily driven by decreases in accounts payable and income taxes payable partially offset by increases in current maturities of long-term debt.

Cash flows provided (used) by investing activities

The cash used in investing activities each period is typically driven by capital expenditures. In the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , capital spending included base maintenance capital supporting ongoing operations and growth spending primarily related to the construction of an activated carbon manufacturing facility in China and new derivative equipment in Charleston, South Carolina supporting the adhesives, pavement and oilfield markets. Projected 2017 capital expenditures are expected to be $55 million to $60 million.



Capital expenditure categories	Six Months Ended June 30,
In millions	2017		2016
Maintenance	$	12.2	$	8.4
Safety, health and environment	3.2		2.6
Growth and cost improvement	6.4		11.2
Total capital expenditures	$	21.8	$	22.2

Cash flows provided (used) by financing activities

As WestRock managed Ingevity's cash and financing arrangements before the Separation, all excess cash generated through earnings was remitted to WestRock and all sources of cash were funded by WestRock prior to May 15, 2016.

Cash used by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $15.1 million and was driven by net repayments of $9.1 million (refer to Note 9 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information) and noncontrolling interest distributions of $4.8 million . Cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $78.8 million and was driven by net borrowings of $477.1 million (refer to Note 9 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information) and an inflow from transactions with WestRock of $51.9 million offset by a distribution to WestRock at Separation of $448.5 million .

Contractual Obligations

Information related to our contractual commitments at December 31, 2016 can be found in a table included within Part II, Item 7 of our 2016 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our contractual commitments during the six months ended June 30, 2017 .

New Accounting Guidance

Refer to the Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements including the respective expected dates of adoption and expected effects on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have described our accounting policies in Note 2 to our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Annual Report. We have reviewed these accounting policies, identifying those that we believe to be critical to the preparation and understanding of our financial statements. Critical accounting policies are central to our presentation of results of operations and financial condition and require management to make estimates and judgments on certain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current conditions and other reasonable factors.

The following is a list of those accounting policies that we have deemed most critical to the presentation and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. See the “Critical Accounting Policies” section included within the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Ingevity" section in our 2016 Annual Report for a detailed description of these policies and their potential effects on our results of operations and financial condition.

• Revenue recognition

• Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

• Concentration of credit risk

• Impairment of long-lived assets

• Income taxes

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign currency exchange rate risk

We have foreign-based operations, primarily in Europe, South America and Asia, which accounted for approximately 16 percent of our net sales in the first half of 2017. Ingevity's significant operations outside the United States have designated the local currency as their functional currency. The primary currencies for which we have exchange rate exposure are the U.S. dollar versus the euro, the Japanese yen and the Chinese renminbi. In addition, certain of our domestic operations have sales to foreign

customers. In the conduct of our foreign operations, we also make inter-company sales. All of this exposes us to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our earnings are therefore subject to change due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when the earnings in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we did not hedge this foreign currency exchange rate risk. The U.S. dollar versus the euro is our most significant foreign currency exposure. A hypothetical 10 percent change in the average euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , would have changed our net sales and income before income taxes by approximately $2 million or one percent and $1 million or two percent, respectively.

Concentration of credit risk

The financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are accounts receivable. We limit our credit risk by performing ongoing credit evaluations and, when necessary, requiring letters of credit, guarantees or collateral. We had accounts receivable relating to our largest customer of $13 million and $16 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.

Commodity price risk

A portion of our manufacturing costs include purchased raw materials, which are commodities whose prices fluctuate as market supply and demand fundamentals change. Accordingly, product margins and the level of our profitability tend to fluctuate with the changes in these commodity prices. The cost of energy is a manufacturing cost that is exposed to commodity pricing. Our energy costs are diversified among electricity, steam and natural gas, with natural gas comprising our largest energy input.

Crude tall oil price risk

Our results of operations are directly affected by the costs of our raw materials, particularly CTO. CTO purchases were approximately 14 percent of our cost of sales and 35 percent of our raw materials purchases for the first half of 2017. Pricing for CTO is subject to particular pricing pressures due to the limited supply elasticity of the product and competing demands for its use, both of which drive pressure on price. Our gross profit and margins could be adversely affected by changes in the cost of CTO if we are unable to pass the increases on to our customers. CTO is a thinly traded commodity with pricing commonly established for periods ranging from one quarter to one year periods of time. We try to protect against such pricing fluctuations through various business strategies. Based on average pricing during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , a hypothetical unfavorable 10 percent change in the market price for CTO would have resulted in additional costs of sales of approximately $4 million or one percent, which we may or may not have been able to pass on to our customers.

Natural gas price risk

Natural gas is our largest form of energy purchases constituting approximately two percent of our cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2017 . Increases in natural gas costs, unless passed on to our customers, would adversely affect our results of operations. If natural gas prices increase significantly, our business or results of operations may be adversely affected. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 , a hypothetical unfavorable 10 percent change in natural gas pricing would have resulted in an additional cost of sales of approximately $0.7 million.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2017 , approximately $401.2 million of our borrowings include a variable interest rate component. As a result, we are subject to interest rate risk with respect to such floating-rate debt. A 100 basis point increase in the variable interest rate component of our borrowings would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $4 million or 25 percent.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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

As of June 30, 2017 , Ingevity's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), together with management, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of Ingevity's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level described above.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in Ingevity's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Ingevity's internal control over financial reporting.
