Chief Executive Officer's review:
As set out at the time of the IPO in October 2017, we have delivered another year of strong business performance in line with expectations. This reiterates the attractiveness of the markets we operate in and our position as a leading global Tier 1 automotive supplier of fluid handling systems.
2017 Performance
Global light vehicle production has a significant influence on our financial performance. In 2017, global light vehicle production volume increased in all markets except North America and reached 95.1 million vehicles, representing an increase of 2.1% compared to the same period the prior year.
We continued to deliver revenue growth above global light vehicle production growth with solid profitability and cash flow generation. We generated revenue of EUR3,491 million (+ 5.4% at constant currency), Adjusted EBIT of EUR384 million (11.0% margin) and Adjusted Free Cash Flow of EUR119 million.
We have continued to grow revenue in excess of global light vehicle production growth as a result of being a global market and technology leader in highly engineered automotive fluid systems, our strong customer relationships, and our global low cost manufacturing footprint including our wholly owned operations in China. We are well positioned with our products and process capabilities to benefit from the continuing demand for light vehicles and the megatrend of electrification.
Strategy Update
The Group's strategy of organic revenue growth, financial performance and focus on megatrends remains at the core of the business.
Continue with the Group's market position strengths in key products
We continue to be the #1 supplier of brake and fuel lines in all key regions globally and #3 supplier of plastic fuel tanks. Our customer and product focus has served to develop our strong market positions.
Together with our established global manufacturing footprint and level of vertical integration, we have achieved expansion by securing new business awards including on global vehicle platforms. This success is carrying through to our thermal management products, systems and plastic pressurised tank modules where we are strongly positioned for the HEVs, EVs and autonomous vehicles growth trends.
Maintain balanced customer, platform, regional and product diversification
With manufacturing facilities and assembly plants in 118 locations across 28 countries and a balanced customer portfolio, we continue to mitigate the impact of regional market cyclicality and customer concentration.
In addition, our expertise across a range of fluid handling products has supported our ability to efficiently expand into complementary components and systems with high growth. We specifically target vehicles and platforms that support our strong diversification.
Continue enhancing the Group's position as an advanced technology leader in automotive fluid systems to meet industry megatrend changes
We have continued to invest in R&D to develop products that facilitate our OEM customers meeting regulated emissions and fuel economy requirements. We have industry recognised innovation awards for plastic fuel tank technologies addressing emissions regulations and continue to see demand for our gasoline, diesel and turbocharger lines that support increasing regulatory requirements.
Continued focus on automotive megatrends
The growing HEV and EV market provides significant growth opportunities aligned with our strength in thermal management products and systems, plastic pressurised fuel tank modules and light weight (including nylon) materials.
Our addressable market could increase substantially especially for thermal management, given that EVs would typically require battery, chassis, electric motor and electronics thermal management (heating and cooling) in addition to traditional passenger cabin heating and cooling lines. Additional thermal management products and systems are expected for autonomous vehicles. We continue to pursue, with increasing confidence, organic HEV and EV opportunities with our existing customers on the larger volume EV programmes.
Our business model continues to be successful and we believe further progress can be achieved by meeting our goals in 2018.
Capitalise on the Group's strong customer relationships, global footprint and excellent position in China
With significant presence in all of the major geographies for OEM vehicle production and a well established global footprint within close proximity to OEM assembly facilities, we aim to be the supplier of choice on OEM global platforms.
A significant amount of our revenue was generated from OEM global platforms (i.e. platforms produced in three or more regions) and we expect this global platform growth trend to continue.
19% of our 2017 revenue was from operations in China where we have a long established presence and wholly-owned operations.
Deliver strong growth, profitability and cash flow generation
For a long period of time, this management team with the strength of our people worldwide has achieved excellent and consistent financial performance with strong revenue growth, profitability and cash flow generation. Our proven track record of financial performance has continued in 2017.
Looking ahead
As promised during the IPO, our dedicated team has continued to strengthen our global position by driving new technologies and products and enhancing our outstanding relationships with customers worldwide. The Group remains well placed to capitalise on the automotive megatrends of reduced emissions and improved fuel economy and we continue to have confidence that the trend towards HEV, EV and autonomous vehicles is positive for the Group.
We look forward to executing our plan and delivering attractive returns as a public company listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Automotive Markets
Global light vehicle production volume is the most significant and influential factor in our overall performance. With our balanced global presence, we have been able to benefit from the continuing strength of the automotive market on a global basis.
Table 2 sets out global and regional light vehicle production volumes for the year as well as the change from 2016. Overall global production of light vehicles increased 2.1% in 2017 to 95.1 million vehicles.
While North American light vehicle production volumes incurred a small retraction, this was more than offset by strong European and Asia Pacific increases.

======= ======= ====== ========
Revenue in 2017 increased EUR142.3 million, or 4.2% compared to 2016. The increase is driven primarily by new business, volume and mix. On a constant currency basis, revenue increased by 5.4%, which exceeded growth in global light vehicle production by 330 basis points.
In Asia Pacific, our revenue at constant currency grew 9.3%, or 6.7% above light vehicle production volume growth.
Despite the slight decline in North America light vehicle production volumes, we saw our revenue in this region increase 6.6% on a constant currency basis, or 10.9% above the light vehicle production volume growth.
In Europe and Africa, our revenue at constant currency grew 1.5%, which was below light vehicle production growth due to the timing gap of certain vehicle programmes approaching end of life and new programmes launching.
In 2017, we generated 40% of our revenue in Europe and Africa, 29% of our revenue in Asia Pacific, 29% in North America and 2% in Latin America.
The Fluid Carrying Systems ("FCS") division revenue grew 5.8% to EUR2,057.1 million with strong growth in North America and Asia Pacific (at constant currency the growth was 6.9%). The Fuel Tank and Delivery Systems ("FTDS") division revenue grew 2.2% to EUR1,433.8 million, which included new business growth in Asia Pacific (at constant currency the growth was 3.3%).
Adjusted EBITDA*, Adjusted EBIT* and Profit for the Year
We use both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT, which are non-IFRS measures, as a measure of profitability and as a metric in certain of our compensation plans. Table 4 shows a reconciliation between profit for the year and Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT.

Adjusted EBIT 383.5 362.1

*See Non-IFRS measures
** Other reconciling items include restructuring charges, the Bain management fees and adjustments for associate income
We continue to see absolute growth in both of these measures as well as improved margins. Our revenue mix and ability to favourably convert on the higher volumes have been the catalysts for these increases.
While we saw increases in certain commodity costs (namely steel and resin) we were able to largely offset these with customer pricing and other efficiencies in order to minimise the impact on our profit and cash flow.
Adjusted EBIT was EUR383.5 million, an increase of EUR21.4 million or 5.9% compared to 2016. Adjusted EBIT margin was 11.0%, a solid 20 basis point improvement. By division, FCS Adjusted EBIT increased EUR8.7 million to EUR271.1 million with Adjusted EBIT margin of 13.2%, and FTDS Adjusted EBIT increased EUR12.7 million to EUR112.4 million with Adjusted EBIT margin of 7.8%.
Profit for the year grew by EUR71.3 million to EUR115.2 million. The increase is due to higher operating profit, lower income tax expense offset partially by an increase in net finance expense. Operating profit increased primarily due to net foreign exchange gains in the year, higher gross profit offset partially by an increase in administrative expenses.
IPO Costs
In support of the October 2017 listing of the Company's shares on the London Stock Exchange, we incurred EUR64.6 million in costs, of which we capitalised EUR19.7 million, while expensing EUR44.9 million. All costs recorded as an expense were considered exceptional and recorded as either administrative or finance costs.
Cash payments of EUR22.1 million associated with IPO costs have been classified within cash generated from operations. Cash associated with capitalised costs of EUR19.7 million and cash associated with the repayment of the unsecured senior notes of EUR17.7 million are shown within cash generated from financing activities.
Exceptional Items
Exceptional items are defined as those items that, by virtue of their nature, size and expected frequency, warrant separate additional disclosure in the financial information in order to fully understand the underlying performance of the Group.
During 2017 and 2016, the substantial majority of exceptional costs were in relation to the IPO. Exceptional administrative costs in 2017 included net IPO costs of EUR25.7 million, share option costs prior to the IPO of EUR11.1 million and restructuring costs of EUR3.4 million related to the exit of our operations in Australia.
In addition to IPO costs of EUR13.4 million in 2016, exceptional administrative costs included EUR2.4 million in acquisition and other transaction costs, which were primarily related to the February 2016 acquisition of Millennium Industries and EUR7.4 million of share option costs.
In 2017 we also incurred exceptional finance costs of EUR17.7 million associated with the repayment premium related to the unsecured senior notes and an EUR8.7 million non-cash charge associated with previously capitalised debt issuance fees in connection with the debt principal amounts paid down with a portion of the IPO proceeds.
As a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, we recognised an exceptional deferred tax asset of EUR25.4 million.
Net Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses
Net foreign exchange gains were EUR24.6 million in 2017 compared to losses of EUR2.0 million in 2016. Foreign exchange gains and losses include non-trade items related to foreign currency translation and fair value movement in foreign exchange forward contracts.
We aim to naturally hedge our operational transactions by earning revenues and incurring costs in the same currency to the extent possible, but will engage in forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate a portion of our remaining exposure.
Our primary exposure, net of hedge arrangements is related to the Group's external borrowings that are denominated in US Dollars and are largely loaned to subsidiaries in the UK, whose functional currency is Euro. Following the use of a portion of the IPO proceeds to repay EUR363.6 million (or $423.5 million) of the US Dollar debt, the exposure has been significantly reduced.
Net Finance Expense
Net finance expense of EUR115.3 million in 2017 increased EUR10.2 million, or 9.7% compared with 2016. The increase was driven by exceptional finance costs of EUR26.4 million, which included EUR17.7 million of repayment premium and EUR8.7 million of debt issuance fees written off following the debt repayment from the IPO proceeds.
The increase in finance costs was partially offset by EUR16.3 million interest savings resulting from the repricing of the term loan debt in January 2017 and reduction in debt following the IPO.
Taxation
The 2017 Adjusted Effective Tax Rate decreased to 28.8% (2016: 34.0%) due to the partial release of the provision on uncertain tax positions and the recognition of tax incentives in certain jurisdictions. The rate was calculated by adjusting for the impact of UK losses, the prior year tax adjustments and the impact of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, where we have recognised EUR25.4 million of exceptional deferred tax benefit in the income statement that reflects the new US corporate tax rate of 21%.
Pro forma Adjusted Basic EPS*
As the IPO occurred in October 2017 and led to a significant change in the shares in issue, and given the one-off costs incurred in the year, an Adjusted Basic EPS calculation is a more appropriate measure as it is based on Adjusted Net Income and the 519.4 million ordinary shares in issue at 31 December 2017. Accordingly, 2017 saw an Adjusted Basic EPS of 26.18 euro cents up from 14.27 euro cents in 2016 on a pro forma basis.
The calculation of Adjusted Net Income is shown below:

Dividend
The Directors have recommended a final dividend of 1.31 euro cents per share, amounting to EUR6.8 million. The amount is calculated based on Adjusted Net Income and has been pro rated to reflect the period since the Company's shares were listed. Subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting on 17 May 2018, the final dividend will be paid on 1 June 2018. The dividend will be converted to Sterling at a fixed rate on 27 April 2018, the Dividend Record Date.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow*
We also use Adjusted Free Cash flow as operating measure of our cash flows.

====== ======
*See Non-IFRS measures
In 2017, our Adjusted Free Cash Flow increased by EUR36.1 million compared to 2016, or 43.8%, to EUR118.6 million. The increase is a result of higher profits before tax and lower interest paid, and lower working capital movements that offset higher payments for property, plant and equipment and taxation.
Retirement Benefits
We operate funded and unfunded defined benefit schemes across multiple jurisdictions with the largest being the US pension and retiree healthcare schemes. We also have significant schemes in the UK, Canada and Germany. While all of our significant plans are closed to new entrants, certain of them do allow for future accruals. Our schemes are subject to periodic actuarial valuations. Our net unfunded position decreased EUR30.6 million from 2016 to EUR162.4 million at the end of 2017.
Net Debt and Net Leverage
Net debt as at 31 December 2017 was EUR891.1 million, which is a reduction of EUR608.5 million since 31 December 2016. Cash generated from operations and the IPO was used to repay EUR376.3 million of borrowings. There was also favourable foreign exchange movement of EUR143.5 million and a reduction in capitalised fees of EUR17.6m. The reduction in net debt resulted in a net leverage ratio of 1.8 times Adjusted EBITDA at the end of 2017, compared to 3.2 times Adjusted EBITDA at the end of 2016.
Liquidity
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been cash generated from operating activities and commitments available under our credit facilities, which currently consist of a revolving facility under our cash flow credit agreement of $125 million (EUR104.1 million) and an asset backed loan (ABL) facility of $100 million (EUR83.3 million). The availability under both facilities as of 31 December 2017 was EUR173.5 million.
Outlook
For 2018, excluding the impact of currency movements, we expect continued revenue growth in excess of global light vehicle production volume growth with Adjusted EBIT margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow consistent with prior year levels. We plan to reduce net leverage through earnings growth and cash flow generation and to maintain a consistent dividend policy.
Non-IFRS Measures
In addition to the results reported under IFRS, we use certain non-IFRS financial measures to monitor and measure performance of our business and operations and the profitability of our divisions. In particular, we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Basic EPS, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate. These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measurements of financial performance or liquidity under IFRS, and should be viewed as supplemental and not replacements or substitutes for any IFRS measures. Such measures are also utilised by the Board of Directors as targets in determining compensation of certain executives and key members of management.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit for the year adjusted for income tax expense, net finance expense, depreciation, amortisation and impairment of PP&E and intangible assets, net foreign exchange gains/ losses and other reconciling items. Other reconciling items include adjustments for restructuring charges, the Bain management fees and adjustment for associate income.
Adjusted EBIT is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation (including PP&E impairment) and amortisation (including intangible impairment) arising on tangible and intangible assets before adjusting for any purchase price adjustments to fair values arising on acquisitions.
Adjusted Net Income is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less net finance expense before exceptional items, income tax expense before exceptional items, depreciation and amortisation (including PP&E and intangible asset impairments) and non-controlling interests share of profit.
Adjusted Basic EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the number of shares in issue at the current balance sheet date.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash generated from operating activities, less cash used by investing activities, adjusted for acquisitions and cash payments related to IPO costs.
Adjusted Effective Tax Rate is defined as Adjusted Income Tax before exceptional items as a percentage of Adjusted Profit before Income Tax.
Adjusted Income Tax before Exceptional Items is Income Tax before Exceptional Items including adjustments in respect of prior years.
Adjusted Profit before Income Tax is Profit before Income Tax adjusted for UK losses.

Notes
1. General Information
On 25 October 2017, TI Fluid System plc's shares were listed on the London Stock Exchange following a global offer of 519.4 million ordinary shares of 255 pence each.
The consolidated financial information herein does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of s43 of the Companies Act 2006 for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 2016.
The Group's full financial statements will be approved by the Board of Directors and reported on by the auditors in March 2018. Accordingly, the financial information for 2017 is presented unaudited in the preliminary announcement. The financial information for the year ended 31 December 2016 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2016 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies, and those for the year ended 31 December 2017 will be delivered in due course. The independent auditors' report on the full financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 was unqualified and did not contain an emphasis of matter paragraph or any statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.
2. Basis of Preparation
The consolidated financial information included within this announcement have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union, and the UK Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS, and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") interpretations issued and effective at the time of preparing the financial information. The financial information in this preliminary announcement does not, however comply with all disclosure requirements.
The financial information have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the fair valuation of assets and liabilities of subsidiary companies acquired, and financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") (including derivative instruments not in hedging relationships).
The preparation of the financial information in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's reasonable knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results may differ from those estimates.
There are no amendments to standards or new standards where adoption by the Group for the first time has had a material impact on the Group's financial information for the financial reporting year beginning 1 January 2017.
3. Segment Reporting
In accordance with the provisions of IFRS 8 Operating Segments, the Group's segment reporting is based on the management approach with regard to segment identification; under which information regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") for decision making purposes is considered decisive. The Company's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company's segments primarily on the basis of revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBIT, both non-IFRS measures.
Two operating segments have been identified by the Company: Fluid Carrying Systems ("FCS") and Fuel Tank and Delivery Systems ("FTDS").

Share option costs incurred prior to the IPO in October 2017 are considered exceptional as they represent compensation arrangements made to incentivise staff in relation to transactions undertaken by the Group and its shareholders.
Restructuring costs of EUR3.4 million in the year relate to the exit of operations in Australia.
Acquisition costs for the year ended 31 December 2016 comprise EUR1.7 million in relation to the acquisition of Millennium Industries Corporation.
IPO expenses for the year consist of EUR27.2 million in relation to costs incurred during 2017, offset by a EUR1.5 million reversal in the prior year accrual (2016: EUR13.4 million). These costs were incurred in preparing the Company for the IPO.
The exceptional net finance expense relates to voluntary repayments of borrowings and comprises an early redemption premium of EUR17.7 million and the expense of unamortised issuance discounts and fees of EUR8.7 million.
As a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the Group recognized EUR25.4 million of exceptional deferred tax benefit in the income statement and EUR15.0 million of exceptional deferred tax charge in the Statement of Comprehensive Income to reflect the new US corporate tax rate of 21% and other tax reform changes, offset by EUR0.6 million of one-time transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings.

Deferred tax assets originating from tax loss carry forwards mainly relate to Canada and France as at 31 December 2017. Forecasts for Canada and France demonstrate several years of continued future profitability and both have consistent expectations of future financial performance. As a result management believe that the current tax losses will be utilised.
As a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the Group recognized EUR25.4 million of exceptional deferred tax benefit in the income statement and EUR15.0 million of exceptional deferred tax charge in the Statement of Comprehensive Income to reflect the new US corporate tax rate of 21% and other tax reform changes, offset by EUR0.6 million of one-time transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings.

The term loan initially comprised tranches of $1,065.0 million and EUR325.0 million. On 31 October 2017, the Group voluntarily repaid $194.0 million (EUR166.5 million) of its US term loan. No penalties were incurred as a result of the early payment. The principal outstanding of the US term loan in US dollars at 31 December 2017 is $849.7 million (2016: $1,051.7 million).
The US dollar tranche bore interest at US$ LIBOR (minimum 1.0% p.a.) +3.5% p.a., and the Euro tranche bore interest at Euro LIBOR (minimum 1.0% p.a.) +3.5% p.a until 27 January 2017. On 27 January 2017, the Group concluded a repricing of its term loans. As a result of the repricing, the interest payable on the US dollar term loan was reduced to US$ LIBOR (minimum 0.75% p.a.) +2.75% p.a., and the interest payable on the Euro term loan was reduced to EURIBOR (minimum 0.75% p.a.) +3.0% p.a.
The US dollar tranche was repayable in amounts of $2.7 million per quarter until 31 October 2017. On 31 October 2017, the Group made a voluntary repayment of this loan of $194.0 million as a result of which no further capital payments are due on the US dollar tranche until the balance falls due on 30 June 2022. The Euro tranche is repayable in amounts of EUR0.8 million per quarter, with the balance also falling due on 30 June 2022.
On 23 January 2018, the Group met certain additional borrowings criteria which enabled it to further reduce the interest rate payable on the US term loan by 0.25% p.a. to US$ LIBOR (minimum 0.75% p.a.) +2.5% p.a, and the Euro term loan by 0.25% p.a. to EURIBOR (minimum 0.75% p.a.) +2.75% p.a., both effective from 30 December 2017.
The initial principal amount of the unsecured senior notes was $450.0 million. On 10 October 2017, the Company announced a tender offer to redeem up to 51% of the Group's unsecured senior notes. The tender offer was accepted by the noteholders and the Company redeemed $229.5 million (EUR197.1 million) of these notes on 31 October 2017. As part of the offer, an early redemption premium in accordance with the terms of the senior notes, was made to the noteholders of $20.6 million (EUR17.7 million) in exchange for the offer. The aggregate principal amount of the unsecured senior notes at 31 December 2017 is $220.5 million (2016: $450.0 million). The notes carry an 8.75% coupon payable bi-annually (on a 360-day year basis) commencing on 15 January 2016, and are redeemable in full on 15 July 2023.
On 6 October 2015 the Group entered into hedging transactions with a number of financial institutions which effectively converted borrowings of $400.0 million at floating interest rates into EUR355.0 million at a fixed interest rate of 4.2%, thereby reducing foreign currency exposure for future cash flows and locking in lower long-term Euro fixed interest rates.
Initial issuance discounts and fees of EUR63.3 million arising from the 2015 agreements were capitalised in 2015. Following the repricing of the term loans on 27 January 2017 (accounted for as a modification to existing agreements), new fees capitalised in the year ended 31 December 2017 were EUR1.6 million; bringing the total fees capitalised under the 2015 agreements to EUR64.9 million. All capitalised fees are expensed using the effective interest rate method over the remaining terms of the facilities. As a result of the voluntary repayments of the US term loan and unsecured senior notes in October 2017, an additional acceleration of unamortised issuance fees was expensed in the income statement in the year of EUR8.7 million.
The asset-backed loan ("ABL") provides up to $100.0 million depending upon the level of inventories and trade receivables in the Group's US and Canadian businesses. The facility is also available to be used to issue letters of credit on behalf of TIGAS LLC. Drawings under the facility bear interest at US$ LIBOR +1.75% p.a. unless the drawings are below $50.0 million when the rate is US$ LIBOR +1.5% p.a. The revolving credit agreement provides a facility of up to $125.0 million. Drawings under this facility bear interest in a range of US$ LIBOR +3.0% to US$ LIBOR + 3.5% p.a. depending on the group's leverage ratios. Both facilities are due to expire on 30 June 2020.
