TRIUMPH GROUP REPORTS FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2019 RESULTS

BERWYN, Pa. - August 8, 2018 - Triumph Group, Inc.(NYSE: TGI) (“Triumph” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2019, which ended June 30, 2018.

First Quarter 2019 Highlights

• Net sales were $832.9 million.

• Operating loss was ($66.5) million, which includes the non-cash ASU 2017-07 pension adjustment of ($87.2) million. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $29.5 million with an adjusted operating margin of 3.5%.

• Net loss was ($76.5) million, or ($1.54) per share. On an adjusted basis, net income was $17.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share.

• Cash used in operations was ($65.7) million, and free cash use was ($77.9) million.

• Guidance for fiscal 2019 for net sales of $3.3 to $3.4 billion and earnings per share of ($0.55) to $0.15, or $1.50 to $2.10 per diluted share on an adjusted basis.

• Management provides guidance for cash used from operations of ($150.0) to ($190.0) million and free cash use of ($200.0) to ($250.0) million, which includes approximately ($180.0) million related to the reduction in prior year customer advances, and approximately ($130.0) million related to the Global 7500 program.

“Triumph’s first quarter results demonstrate our continued progress towards achieving our financial performance targets,” stated Daniel J. Crowley, Triumph’s president and chief executive officer. “Consistent with our projections for fiscal 2019, we delivered a year-over-year increase in net sales, with all three business segments generating organic sales growth.”

Mr. Crowley continued, “Our first quarter cash usage was consistent with our expectations and showed both year-over-year and sequential improvement. Excluding the cash consumed by the Global 7500 program and the liquidation of prior year customer advances, free cash flow was positive in the first quarter.”

Mr. Crowley continued, “We expect to use significantly less cash for Aerospace Structures’ programs in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2020 compared to the two prior years. Our fiscal 2019 cash guidance reflects the improvements the Company has made operationally and in contract negotiations over the past two years and is another waypoint towards consistent positive cash flow. Our continued portfolio reshaping in the first quarter included agreements to divest two non-core businesses, in addition to completing a third divestiture following the end of the quarter, which we expect to further enhance our future profitability and cash flow. Additional divestitures are planned for the second half of FY19.”

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Overview

After accounting for divestitures and the impact of the adoption of ASC 606, sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 were up 3% organically from the comparable prior year period. Sales growth was driven by the ramp on the Global 7500 as well as increased rotorcraft deliveries and higher demand for structural component repairs.

First quarter operating loss of ($66.5) million included a previously disclosed $87.2 million non-cash pension charge related to the adoption of the new FASB accounting standard update, ASU 2017-07. Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 was ($76.5) million, or ($1.54) per share. On an adjusted basis, net income was $17.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. Triumph’s results included the following:

($ millions except EPS)	Pre-tax			After-tax			Diluted EPS
Loss from Continuing Operations - GAAP	$	(75.5	)	$	(76.5	)	$	(1.54	)
Adoption of ASU 2017-07	87.2			85.5			1.72
Loss on Assets Held for Sale	4.7			4.7			0.09
Transformation related costs:
Restructuring costs (cash)	4.0			3.4			0.07
Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations - non-GAAP	$	20.5		$	17.0		$	0.34		*
*Difference due to rounding

The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 was 49.8 million.

Backlog was $4.4 billion, a 5% increase from the prior year period and down slightly on a sequential basis reflecting increased selectivity in pursuing new awards based on projected profitability and cash flow and the non-linear nature of order timing.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2018, cash flow used in operations was ($65.7) million, reflecting approximately ($53.0) million for the liquidation of customer advances and approximately ($81.0) million of cash used on the Global 7500 program.

2

Outlook

Based on anticipated aircraft production rates and completed divestitures, the Company continues to expect that net sales for fiscal year 2019 will be approximately $3.3 to $3.4 billion, up from fiscal 2018 as development programs enter production, and sales from continuing programs and new wins offset waning programs. The Company expects fiscal year 2019 earnings per share to be ($0.55) to $0.15, or $1.50 to $2.10 per diluted share, adjusted for pension accounting changes, transformation related costs and loss on assets held for sale.

The Company expects fiscal year 2019 cash used in operations of ($150.0) to ($190.0) million, and free cash use of ($200.0) to ($250.0) million, which includes approximately ($180.0) million related to the liquidation of customer advances received in fiscal 2017 and 2018, and approximately ($130.0) million of cash use related to the Global 7500 program.

The Company’s current outlook reflects adjustments detailed in the attached tables but does not take into account the impact of any potential future divestitures.

Triumph Group will hold a conference call today, August 8^th at 8:30 a.m. (ET) to discuss the first quarter fiscal year 2019 results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Disclosures

We prepare and publicly release quarterly unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) guidance on Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, we also disclose and discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures in our public releases. Currently, the non-GAAP financial measures that we disclose are Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP. Adjusted EBITDA is our net income before interest, income taxes, amortization of acquired contract liabilities, curtailments, settlements and early retirement incentives, legal settlements, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDAP is Adjusted EBITDA less pension & other post-retirement benefits. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP on a consolidated basis and Adjusted EBITDAP on an operating segment basis in our earnings releases, investor conference calls, and filings with the SEC. The non-GAAP financial measures that we use may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Also, in the future, we may disclose different non-GAAP financial measures in order to help our investors more meaningfully evaluate and compare our future results of operations to our previously reported results of operations.

We view Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP as operating performance measures and, as such, we believe that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to it is net income. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP, we exclude from net income the financial items that we believe should be separately identified to provide additional analysis of the financial components of the day-to-day operation of our business. We have outlined below the type and scope of these exclusions and the material limitations on the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as a result of these exclusions. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to net income (loss), income from continuing operations, or as an indicator of any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in our securities should not rely on Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDAP as substitutes for any GAAP financial measures, including net income (loss) or income from continuing operations. In addition, we urge investors and potential investors in our securities to carefully review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP to net income set forth below, in our earnings releases and in other filings with the SEC and to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K that are filed with the SEC, as well as our quarterly earnings releases, and compare the GAAP financial information with our Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP are used by management to internally measure our operating and management performance and by investors as a supplemental financial measure to evaluate the performance of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, we believe provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. We have spent more than 20 years expanding our product and service capabilities partially through acquisitions of complementary businesses. Due to the expansion of our operations, which included acquisitions, our net income has included significant charges for depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP exclude these charges and provide meaningful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from charges for depreciation and amortization. We believe the disclosures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP help investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our performance from quarter to quarter and from year to year. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP are measures of our ongoing operating performance because the isolation of non-cash income and expenses, such as amortization of acquired contract liabilities, depreciation and amortization, and non-operating items, such as interest and income taxes, provides additional information about our cost structure, and, over time, helps track our operating progress. In addition, investors, securities analysts and others have regularly relied on Adjusted EBITDA to provide a financial measure by which to compare our operating performance against that of other companies in our industry.

Set forth below are descriptions of the financial items that have been excluded from our net income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP and the material limitations associated with using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to net income:

• Divestitures may be useful for investors to consider because they reflect gains or losses from sale of operating units. We do not believe these earnings necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.

TRIUMPH GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(dollars in thousands)

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Disclosures (continued)

• Legal settlements may be useful to investors to consider because they reflect gains or losses from disputes with third parties. We do not believe that these gains or losses necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.

• Non-service defined benefit income (inclusive of the adoption of ASU 2017-07) may be useful to investors to consider because they represent the cost of post-retirement benefits to plan participants, net of the assumption of returns on the plan's assets and are not indicative of the cash paid for such benefits. We do not believe these earnings (expenses) necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.

• Amortization of acquired contract liabilities may be useful for investors to consider because it represents the non-cash earnings on the fair value of below market contracts acquired through acquisitions. We do not believe these earnings necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.

• Amortization expenses may be useful for investors to consider because it represents the estimated attrition of our acquired customer base and the diminishing value of product rights and licenses. We do not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating cost structure.

• Depreciation may be useful for investors to consider because they generally represent the wear and tear on our property and equipment used in our operations. We do not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating cost structure.

• The amount of interest expense and other we incur may be useful for investors to consider and may result in current cash inflows or outflows. However, we do not consider the amount of interest expense and other to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.

• Income tax expense may be useful for investors to consider because it generally represents the taxes which may be payable for the period and the change in deferred income taxes during the period and may reduce the amount of funds otherwise available for use in our business.  However, we do not consider the amount of income tax expense to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.

Management compensates for the above-described limitations of using non-GAAP measures by using a non-GAAP measure only to supplement our GAAP results and to provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.

ASC 606 Adoption • The adoption of this standard impacts the amount and timing of revenue recognition and the accounting treatment of capitalized pre-production costs for certain of our contracts. • The units-of-delivery method is no longer viable and many performance obligations are satisfied over time which changes the timing of revenue and associated production costs for certain contracts. • For performance obligations satisfied over time, will most likely use an input method as basis for recognizing revenue Ex. resources consumed, labor hours expended, costs incurred, time lapsed, or machine hours used • We will continue to record forward losses relating to unfulfilled contracts and options consistent with historical accounting policies • Accounting for tooling, and certain other costs to fulfill contracts continue under existing guidance 22
