TE Connectivity announces first quarter results for fiscal year 2023
Sales above guidance driven by year-over-year growth in Transportation and Industrial segments
SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland – Jan. 25, 2023 – TE Connectivity Ltd. (NYSE: TEL) today reported results for the fiscal first quarter ended Dec. 30, 2022.
First Quarter Highlights
| ● | Net sales were $3.8 billion, up 1% on a reported basis and 8% organically year over year. |
| o | Organic growth of 14% in the Transportation Solutions segment and 7% in the Industrial Solutions segment, partially offset by a decline of 11% in the Communications Solutions segment |
| o | Currency negatively impacted sales by approximately $300 million |
| ● | GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations were $1.25, and adjusted EPS exceeded guidance at $1.53. |
| o | Adjusted EPS impacted by $0.25 of currency and tax headwinds year over year |
| ● | Order levels were $3.6 billion with a continued strong backlog position. |
| ● | Strong cash flow from operating activities of $581 million and free cash flow of approximately $400 million, with approximately $410 million returned to shareholders |
| ● | Company named to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for the 11th consecutive year. |
“We delivered sales and adjusted EPS above guidance in the first quarter as our global teams continued to execute in a dynamic macro environment,” said TE Connectivity CEO Terrence Curtin. “Our Transportation segment outperformed the market due to our global leading position in electric vehicles, and our Industrial segment demonstrated organic growth across all businesses. We continue to see solid demand and backlog trends in both of those segments. In our Communications segment, we saw incremental weakness in our end markets, which drove lower volumes as our customers consumed excess inventory across the supply chain. While we cannot control the demand environment, we are continuing to take actions to drive margin improvements as we move through the year. We remain confident that we are well positioned for long-term growth and profitability as our customers continue to rely on our technology to advance important trends including e-mobility, renewable energy, factory automation and cloud computing, which are creating a safer, sustainable, productive and connected future.”

Second Quarter FY23 Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the company expects net sales of approximately $3.9 billion, reflecting a decrease of 3% on a reported basis and an increase of 2% on an organic basis year over year. GAAP EPS from continuing operations are expected to be approximately $1.44, with adjusted EPS of approximately $1.57.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present non-GAAP performance and liquidity measures as we believe it is appropriate for investors to consider adjusted financial measures in addition to results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information and should not be considered replacements for results in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and in its decision-making processes related to the operations of our company. We believe these measures provide meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance the understanding of our operating performance, ability to generate

cash, and the trends of our business. Additionally, we believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operations. The primary limitation of these measures is that they exclude the financial impact of items that would otherwise either increase or decrease our reported results. This limitation is best addressed by using these non-GAAP financial measures in combination with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in order to better understand the amounts, character, and impact of any increase or decrease in reported amounts. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.
The following provides additional information regarding our non-GAAP financial measures:
•Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) – represents net sales growth (decline) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, and acquisitions and divestitures that occurred in the preceding twelve months, if any. Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) is a useful measure of our performance because it excludes items that are not completely under management’s control, such as the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and items that do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
•Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin – represent operating income and operating margin, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, and other income or charges, if any. We utilize these adjusted measures in combination with operating income and operating margin to assess segment level operating performance and to provide insight to management in evaluating segment operating plan execution and market conditions. Adjusted Operating Income is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
•Adjusted Other Income (Expense), Net – represents net other income (expense) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including tax sharing income related to adjustments to prior period tax returns and other items, if any.
•Adjusted Income Tax (Expense) Benefit and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate – represent income tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) after adjusting for the tax effect of special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any.
•Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations – represents income from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, tax sharing income related to adjustments to prior period tax returns and other tax items, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects.
•Adjusted Earnings Per Share – represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, tax sharing income related to adjustments to prior period tax returns and other tax items, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.

•Free Cash Flow (FCF) – is a useful measure of our ability to generate cash. The difference between net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) and Free Cash Flow consists mainly of significant cash outflows and inflows that we believe are useful to identify. We believe Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated from our operations. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities excluding voluntary pension contributions and the cash impact of special items, if any, minus net capital expenditures. Voluntary pension contributions are excluded from the GAAP financial measure because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. Certain special items, including net payments related to pre-separation tax matters and cash paid (collected) pursuant to collateral requirements related to cross-currency swap contracts, are also excluded by management in evaluating Free Cash Flow. Net capital expenditures consist of capital expenditures less proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. These items are subtracted because they represent long-term commitments. In the calculation of Free Cash Flow, we subtract certain cash items that are ultimately within management’s and the Board of Directors’ discretion to direct and may imply that there is less or more cash available for our programs than the most comparable GAAP financial measure indicates. It should not be inferred that the entire Free Cash Flow amount is available for future discretionary expenditures, as our definition of Free Cash Flow does not consider certain non-discretionary expenditures, such as debt payments. In addition, we may have other discretionary expenditures, such as discretionary dividends, share repurchases, and business acquisitions, that are not considered in the calculation of Free Cash Flow.
Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainty and changes in circumstances, which may cause actual results, performance, financial condition or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance, financial condition or achievements. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking and the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have no intention and are under no obligation to update or alter (and expressly disclaim any such intention or obligation to do so) our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. The forward-looking statements in this release include statements addressing our future financial condition and operating results, and the impact on our operations resulting from the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”). Examples of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the extent, severity and duration of COVID-19 negatively affecting our business operations; business, economic, competitive and regulatory risks, such as conditions affecting demand for products in the automotive and other industries we serve; competition and pricing pressure; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices; natural disasters and political, economic and military instability in countries in which we operate, including continuing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or escalating tensions in surrounding countries; developments in the credit markets; future goodwill impairment; compliance with current and future environmental and other laws and regulations; and the possible effects on us of changes in tax laws, tax treaties and other legislation, including the effects of Swiss tax reform. In addition, the extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business and our financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Such developments may include the geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the virus, the duration of the outbreak, the impact on our suppliers’ and customers’ supply chains, the actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities in response to the outbreak in jurisdictions

in which we operate, and the possible impact on the global economy and local economies in which we operate. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in TE Connectivity Ltd.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Sept 30, 2022, as well as in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other reports filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

| Forward - Looking Statements and Non - GAAP Financial Measures 2 Forward - Looking Statements This presentation contains certain "forward - looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Ref orm Act of 1995. These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainty and changes in circumstances, which may cause actual results, performance, financial condition or achievements to differ materially from ant ici pated results, performance, financial condition or achievements. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature a re forward - looking and the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions are generally intended to identi fy forward - looking statements. We have no intention and are under no obligation to update or alter (and expressly disclaim any such intention or ob ligation to do so) our forward - looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent requ ired by law. The forward - looking statements in this presentation include statements addressing our future financial condition and operating r esults, and the impact on our operations resulting from the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID - 19”). Examples of factors that could cause actu al results to differ materially from those described in the forward - looking statements include, among others, the extent, severity and dura tion of COVID - 19 negatively affecting our business operations; business, economic, competitive and regulatory risks, such as conditions aff ect ing demand for products in the automotive and other industries we serve; competition and pricing pressure; fluctuations in foreign curre ncy exchange rates and commodity prices; natural disasters and political, economic and military instability in countries in which we opera te, including continuing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or escalating tensions in su rrounding countries; developments in the credit markets; future goodwill impairment; compliance with current and future environmental a nd other laws and regulations; and the possible effects on us of changes in tax laws, tax treaties and other legislation, including the eff ect s of Swiss tax reform. In addition, the extent to which COVID - 19 will impact our business and our financial results will depend on future devel opments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Such developments may include the geographic spread of the virus, the sev eri ty of the virus, the duration of the outbreak, the impact on our suppliers’ and customers’ supply chains, the actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities in response to the outbreak in jurisdictions in which we operate, and the possible impact on the glo bal economy and local economies in which we operate. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in TE Connectivity Lt d.'s Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2022 as well as in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q, Current Reports o n Form 8 - K and other reports filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

| 15 Non - GAAP Financial Measures We present non - GAAP performance and liquidity measures as we believe it is appropriate for investors to consider adjusted financ ial measures in addition to results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). These non - GAAP financial measures provide supplem ental information and should not be considered replacements for results in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non - GAAP financial measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and in its decision - making processes related to the operations of our company. We believe these measures provide meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance the understanding of our operating performance, ability to generate cash, and the trends of our business. Additionally, we be lie ve that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operations. The primary limitation of these measures is th at they exclude the financial impact of items that would otherwise either increase or decrease our reported results. This limitation is best addressed by using these non - GAAP financial measures in combination with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in order to better understand the amounts, character, and impact of any incr eas e or decrease in reported amounts. These non - GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly - titled measures reported by other companies. The following provides additional information regarding our non - GAAP financial measures: • Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) – represents net sales growth (decline) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) excludin g the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, and acquisitions and divestitures that occurred in the preceding twelve months, if any. Organic Net Sales Gro wth (Decline) is a useful measure of our performance because it excludes items that are not completely under management’s control, such as the impact of changes in fo rei gn currency exchange rates, and items that do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity. This measure is a sig nif icant component in our incentive compensation plans. • Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin – represent operating income and operating margin, respectively, (the mo st comparable GAAP financial measures) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition - related charges, impairment of goodwill, a nd other income or charges, if any. We utilize these adjusted measures in combination with operating income and operating margin to assess segment level operating p erf ormance and to provide insight to management in evaluating segment operating plan execution and market conditions. Adjusted Operating Income is a significant c omp onent in our incentive compensation plans. • Adjusted Other Income (Expense), Net – represents net other income (expense) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including tax sharing income related to adjustments to prior period tax returns and other items, if any. • Adjusted Income Tax (Expense) Benefit and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate – represent income tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) after adjusting for the tax effect of special items including restructuring and other cha rge s, acquisition - related charges, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any. • Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations – represents income from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial me asure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition - related charges, impairment of goodwill, tax sharing income related to adjustments to prior period tax returns and other tax items, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects. • Adjusted Earnings Per Share – represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financi al measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition - related charges, impairment of goodwill, tax sharing income related to ad justments to prior period tax returns and other tax items, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects. T his measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans. |
| 16 • Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin - represent net income and net income as a percentage of net sales, respectively, (th e most comparable GAAP financial measures) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, as adjusted for net other i nco me (expense), income (loss) from discontinued operations, and special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition - related charges, impairment of goodwill, and other income or charges, if any. • Free Cash Flow (FCF) – is a useful measure of our ability to generate cash. The difference between net cash provided by operatin g activities (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) and Free Cash Flow consists mainly of significant cash outflows and inflows that we believe are useful to ide ntify. We believe Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and ev alu ate cash flows generated from our operations. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities excluding voluntary pension contributions and the cash impact of special items, if any, minus net capital expenditures. Voluntary pension contributions are excluded from the GAAP financial measure because this act ivi ty is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. Certain special items, including net payments related to pre - separation tax matters an d cash paid (collected) pursuant to collateral requirements related to cross - currency swap contracts, are also excluded by management in evaluating Free Cash Flow. Net capital expenditures consist of capital expenditures less proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. These items are subtracted because they represent lo ng - term commitments. In the calculation of Free Cash Flow, we subtract certain cash items that are ultimately within management’s and the Board of Directors’ discret ion to direct and may imply that there is less or more cash available for our programs than the most comparable GAAP financial measure indicates. It should not be inferred tha t t he entire Free Cash Flow amount is available for future discretionary expenditures, as our definition of Free Cash Flow does not consider certain non - discretionary expenditures, such as debt payments. In addition, we may have other discretionary expenditures, such as discretionary dividends, share repurchases, and business acqu isi tions, that are not considered in the calculation of Free Cash Flow. • Free Cash Flow Conversion – represents the ratio of Free Cash Flow to Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations.
