STEELCASE INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for a full year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 24, 2017 (“Form 10-K”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 24, 2017 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in our Form 10-K.
As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Steelcase,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are to Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. Unless the context otherwise indicates, reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than a calendar year. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
2.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) , to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic post-retirement benefit cost. The amended guidance requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost, provides explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement, and allows only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted within the first interim period of a fiscal year. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740) . The update is intended to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. We chose to early adopt this guidance in Q1 2018, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) , which is part of the FASB Simplification Initiative. The updated guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance in Q1 2018 and, as a result, the income tax effects of our share-based compensation awards, which aggregated $0.6, were recognized as a component of Income tax expense on our Consolidated Statement of Income for the three months ended May 26, 2017 instead of a component of Additional paid-in capital on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of May 26, 2017. The remaining requirements of this new accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. The updated guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We expect the adoption of this guidance will result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which establishes a new standard on revenue recognition. The new standard outlines a single comprehensive

5
STEELCASE INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model 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. The standard is designed to create greater comparability for financial statement users across industries and jurisdictions and also requires enhanced disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are in the process of evaluating the impact that will result from adoption of the new standard, but based on analysis performed as of May 26, 2017, we do not anticipate a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. We currently plan to apply the new standard using the modified retrospective method beginning in 2019.
3.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities represent restricted stock units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period. Diluted earnings per share includes the effects of certain performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period.

FAIR VALUE
The carrying amounts for many of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, foreign exchange forward contracts and long-term investments are measured at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Our total debt is carried at cost and was $296.8 and $297.4 as of May 26, 2017 and February 24, 2017 , respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $331 and $330 as of May 26, 2017 and February 24, 2017 , respectively. The estimation of the fair value of our total debt is based on Level 2 fair value measurements.
We periodically use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of short-term volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Performance Units
In Q1 2018, we awarded 153,200 performance units ("PSUs") to our executive officers. The PSUs awarded are earned after a three-year performance period, from 2018 through 2020, based on achievement of certain total shareholder return results relative to a comparison group of companies, which is a market condition, and, if earned, will be issued in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock. The number of shares that may be earned can range from 0% to 200% of the target amount; therefore, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under these awards is 306,400 . These PSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the performance period. We used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of these PSUs on the date of grant. The model resulted in a weighted average grant date fair value of $21.76 per unit for these PSUs, compared to $16.33 and $24.15 per unit for similar PSUs granted in 2017 and 2016, respectively.
The weighted average grant date fair values were determined using the following assumptions:

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations:
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 24, 2017 . Reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than the calendar year, unless indicated by a specific date. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This item contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the condensed consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation below of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
The non-GAAP financial measures used are: (1) organic revenue growth (decline), which represents the change in revenue excluding estimated currency translation effects and the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures, and (2) adjusted operating income (loss), which represents operating income (loss) excluding restructuring costs (benefits). These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends. Therefore, management believes this information is also useful for investors.
Financial Summary

Our reportable segments consist of the Americas segment, the EMEA segment and the Other category. Unallocated corporate costs are reported as Corporate.

Overview
In Q1 2018, we posted 2% revenue growth over the prior year, or 4% on an organic basis, driven by strong project business in the Americas and significant growth in Asia Pacific, while revenue in EMEA declined compared to the prior year. Despite the revenue growth and the completion of restructuring activities in the prior year, operating income declined slightly compared to the prior year primarily due to higher operating expenses and costs associated with the annuitization of three smaller defined benefit plans. We have continued to invest in product development, sales, marketing and information technology that support our strategies, and we intend to launch a significant number of new products throughout 2018.
We recorded net income of $18.1 and diluted earnings per share of $0.15 in Q1 2018 compared to net income of $19.4 and diluted earnings per share of $0.16 in Q1 2017 . The Q1 2018 results reflected the net impact of the defined benefit plan annuitizations which reduced diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03. Operating income of $29.9 in Q1 2018 compared to operating income of $33.3 in Q1 2017 . Revenue growth and lower cost of sales as a percent of revenue in Q1 2018 were more than offset by higher operating expenses compared to the prior year. Current quarter operating income was unfavorably impacted by $7.3 of charges related to the defined benefit plan annuitizations. After adjusting for the impact of restructuring costs in the prior year, operating income of $29.9 in Q1 2018 compared to adjusted operating income of $37.9 in Q1 2017 .
Revenue of $735.1 in Q1 2018 represented an increase of $16.3 or 2% compared to prior year. The increase in revenue was driven by growth of 19% in the Other category and 3% in the Americas, partially offset by a decline of 10% in EMEA. After adjusting for $7.9 of unfavorable currency translation effects and a $0.8 unfavorable impact due to divestitures, organic revenue growth was $25.0 or 4% compared to prior year. Organic revenue growth of 20% in the Other category and 3% in the Americas was partially offset by an organic decline of 4% in EMEA.
Cost of sales as a percent of revenue decreased by 40 basis points to 67.0% of revenue in Q1 2018 compared to Q1 2017 . The improvement was driven by a strong improvement in the Other category, partially offset by an increase in EMEA. Cost of sales also included charges of $3.4 associated with the defined benefit plan annuitizations recorded in the Americas segment.
Operating expenses of $212.9 in Q1 2018 represented an increase of $16.8 or 160 basis points as a percent of revenue compared to the prior year. The increased spending in the current quarter included investments in product development, sales, marketing and information technology in the Americas segment in support of our strategies. In addition, the higher spending included $3.9 of expense associated with the defined benefit plan annuitizations ($3.0 in the Other category and $0.9 in Corporate).
There were no restructuring costs in Q1 2018 compared to restructuring costs of $4.6 in Q1 2017 . The Q1 2017 amount included costs associated with the closure of a manufacturing facility in High Point, North Carolina, the closure of a manufacturing facility in Durlangen, Germany and the establishment of the Learning + Innovation Center in Munich, Germany.
Our effective tax rate in Q1 2018 was 36.3% compared to a Q1 2017 effective tax rate of 38.8% , which included $1.0 of net unfavorable discrete tax items.

Operating income in the Americas decreased by $4.8 in Q1 2018 compared to the prior year. The decline in the quarter was driven by higher operating expenses, partially offset by higher sales volume, and the prior year included restructuring costs of $2.6 compared to no restructuring costs in the current year. After adjusting for the impact of restructuring costs in the prior year, operating income of $41.8 in Q1 2018 compared to adjusted operating income of $49.2 in the prior year.
The Americas revenue represented 72.8% of consolidated revenue in Q1 2018 . Revenue for Q1 2018 of $535.0 represented an increase of $14.6 or 2.8% compared to Q1 2017 . The increase was driven by strong project business, including a very large project in the manufacturing sector. After adjusting for $1.0 of unfavorable currency translation effects, the organic revenue increase in Q1 2018 was $15.6 or 3% compared to prior year.
Cost of sales as a percent of revenue increased slightly in Q1 2018 compared to Q1 2017 . The increase was driven by unfavorable shifts in business mix compared to the prior year and the impact of $3.4 of charges associated with the defined benefit plan annuitizations, partially offset by $6.4 of lower warranty costs compared to prior year.

15

Operating expenses in Q1 2018 increased by $11.6 , or 160 basis points as a percent of revenue, compared to the prior year driven by approximately $9 of higher investments in product development, sales, marketing and information technology that support our strategies.
There were no restructuring costs recorded in the Americas in Q1 2018 compared to restructuring costs of $2.6 in Q1 2017 associated with the closure of the High Point facility which was completed in Q1 2017.

Operating results in EMEA declined in Q1 2018 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower sales volume, unfavorable shifts in business mix and higher operating expenses, partially offset by the impact of cost reduction efforts.
EMEA revenue represented 15.4% of consolidated revenue in Q1 2018 . Revenue for Q1 2018 was $113.1 compared to $125.3 in Q1 2017 . The 10% decline in revenue was driven by lower volume in Germany and Central Europe, partially offset by revenue growth in the Middle East and Africa. After adjusting for $6.1 of unfavorable currency translation effects, the organic revenue decline was $5.3 or 4% .
Cost of sales as a percent of revenue increased slightly in Q1 2018 compared to the prior year. The increase in cost of sales was driven by lower absorption of fixed costs and unfavorable shifts in business mix, partially offset by cost reduction efforts, the elimination of disruption costs and lower warranty costs in the current year.
Operating expenses in Q1 2018 increased by $0.9 compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher product development and marketing costs.
There were no restructuring costs in EMEA in Q1 2018 compared to restructuring costs of $2.0 in Q1 2017 associated with the closure of the Durlangen facility and the establishment of the Learning + Innovation Center in Munich.
Other
The Other category includes Asia Pacific, Designtex and PolyVision. Asia Pacific serves customers in Asia and Australia primarily under the Steelcase brand with an emphasis on freestanding furniture systems, seating and storage solutions. Designtex primarily sells textiles, wall coverings and surface imaging solutions specified by architects and designers directly to end-use customers through a direct sales force primarily in North America.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Based on current business conditions, we target a range of $75 to $150 in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments to fund day-to-day operations, including seasonal disbursements, particularly the annual payment of accrued variable compensation and retirement plan contributions in Q1 of each fiscal year. In addition, we may carry additional liquidity for potential investments in strategic initiatives and as a cushion against economic volatility.

As of May 26, 2017 , we held a total of $181.2 in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Of our total $143.9 in cash and cash equivalents, approximately 66% was located in the U.S. and the remaining 34% was located outside of the U.S., primarily in Mexico, Spain, France and China. The majority of amounts located outside the U.S. would be taxable if repatriated to the U.S. as dividends. Such amounts are considered available to repay intercompany debt, available to meet local working capital requirements or permanently reinvested in foreign

17

subsidiaries. The majority of our short-term investments are located in the U.S. and maintained in a managed investment portfolio, which primarily consists of corporate debt securities and U.S. agency debt securities.
Our investments in COLI policies are intended to be utilized as a long-term funding source for long-term employee benefit obligations. However, COLI can be used as a source of liquidity. We believe the financial strength of the issuing insurance companies associated with our COLI policies is sufficient to meet their obligations. COLI investments are recorded at their net cash surrender value.
Availability under credit facilities may be reduced related to compliance with applicable covenants. See Liquidity Facilities for more information .

The decrease in cash used by operating activities in Q1 2018 compared to Q1 2017 was driven by lower variable compensation and increased customer deposits, offset in part by increased working capital and the timing of VAT recoveries.

We have a $125 global committed five-year bank facility which was entered into in Q3 2017. As of May 26, 2017, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility, our availability was not limited, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility.
The various uncommitted lines may be changed or canceled by the banks at any time. There were no outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted facilities as of May 26, 2017.
In addition, we have credit agreements of $40.1 which can be utilized to support letters of credit, bank guarantees or foreign exchange contracts; letters of credit and bank guarantees of $11.6 were outstanding under such facilities as of May 26, 2017 . There were no draws on our standby letters of credit during Q1 2018 .
Total consolidated debt as of May 26, 2017 was $296.8 . Our debt primarily consists of $248.9 in term notes due in 2021 with an effective interest rate of 6.6%. In addition, we have a term loan with a balance as of May 26, 2017 of $47.4. This term loan has a floating interest rate based on 30-day LIBOR plus 1.20% and is due in Q1 2024. The term notes are unsecured and the term loan is secured by two aircraft. The term notes and the term loan do not contain financial covenants and are not cross-defaulted to our other debt facilities.
Liquidity Outlook
Our current cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances, funds available under our credit facilities, funds available from COLI and cash generated from future operations are expected to be sufficient to finance our known or foreseeable liquidity needs. We continue to maintain a conservative approach to liquidity and have flexibility over significant uses of cash including our capital expenditures and discretionary operating expenses.
Our significant funding requirements include operating expenses, non-cancelable operating lease obligations, capital expenditures, variable compensation and retirement plan contributions, dividend payments and debt service obligations.
We currently expect capital expenditures to approximate $80 to $90 in 2018 compared to $61 in 2017. This amount includes investments in our global manufacturing operations, product development and the new Learning + Innovation Center in Munich. We closely manage capital spending to ensure we are making investments that we believe will sustain our business and preserve our ability to introduce innovative new products.
On June 21, 2017, we announced a quarterly dividend on our common stock of $0.1275 per share, or approximately $15.3, to be paid in Q2 2018. Future dividends will be subject to approval by our Board of Directors.
Critical Accounting Estimates
During Q1 2018 , there have been no changes in the items that we have identified as critical accounting estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Forward-looking Statements
From time to time, in written and oral statements, we discuss our expectations regarding future events and our plans and objectives for future operations. These forward-looking statements discuss goals, intentions and expectations as to future trends, plans, events, results of operations or financial condition, or state other information relating to us, based on current beliefs of management as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, us. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” or other similar words, phrases or expressions. Although we believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they are based upon a number of assumptions concerning future conditions, any or all of which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary from our expectations because of factors such as, but not limited to, competitive and general economic conditions domestically and internationally; acts of terrorism, war, governmental action, natural disasters and other Force Majeure events; changes in the legal and regulatory environment; our restructuring activities; changes in raw materials and commodity costs; currency fluctuations; changes in customer demand; and the other risks and contingencies detailed in this Report, our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

In January 2016, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program permitting the repurchase of up to $150 of shares of our common stock. This program has no specific expiration date. On October 10, 2016, we entered into a stock repurchase agreement with a third party broker under which the broker was authorized to repurchase up to 5 million shares of our common stock on our behalf during the period from October 11, 2016 through March 23, 2017, subject to certain price, market and volume constraints specified in the agreement. A similar agreement with a broker was entered into on April 18, 2017, under which the broker is authorized to repurchase up to 4 million shares of our common stock during the period from April 18, 2017 through September 21, 2017. These agreements were established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. Shares purchased under the agreements are part of the Company's share repurchase program approved in January 2016.
